Include internal and external parties in key business processesKey participants in your business processes are located inside and outside your organization. Whether internal or external, customer trading partners, suppliers, and employees are integral to your business processes. But not all of them can be counted on to use the same computing platform or to invest in the same software you use to create applications, CAD drawings, marketing collateral, purchase orders, or forms.
With Adobe Reader Extensions Server, no costly software is required to easily and efficiently equip third parties to participate in your business processes. Reader Extensions works with existing IT assets to create an automated environment for capturing information and feedback vital to helping your company or government agency cut costs, improve customer satisfaction, speed time to market, and extend the value of your investment in enterprise applications.
How it worksReader Extensions allows you to embed one-time usage rights within an Adobe PDF document. These usage rights turn on hidden functionality within free Adobe Reader software, so end users can view and interact with intelligent Adobe PDF documents. To manually assign rights to a small number of documents or forms one at a time, Reader Extensions provides an intuitive Web browser interface. The Web interface enables any authorized user of Reader Extensions to assign functionality, with no special technical expertise required. Using a programmable Application Programming Interface (API), you can also assign functionality to a large batch of documents.
Reader Extensions server software works hand in hand with the ubiquitous Adobe Reader universal client, which is available free of charge and already has been distributed to more than 500 million desktops. Normally dormant end-user capabilities are automatically activated when the rights-enabled Adobe PDF document is launched within Adobe Reader. When the respondent is finished working with the document, those functions are once again disabled until the user receives another rights-enabled PDF file. All of this functionality comes at no additional cost to your customers, constituents, partners, or colleagues. |
