EDP Weekly's IT Monitor, Feb 14, 2000

Adobe Systems and Palm Computing Inc., a 3Com Co., announced an intention to integrate Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) technologies and the Palm Computing platform geared towards the growing consumer market for electronic publishing. This effort signals an intent to bring a new level of convenience and portability to Adobe's customers and to deliver Palm users with new content, from electronic books (e-books) to business workflow documents.

Publishers, authors and readers of electronic documents use Adobe PDF for its ability to retain the visual integrity of a document, preserve relevant information such as graphics and text within a single document and maintain cross-platform capabilities. Tens of millions of PDF files are already available worldwide, including electronic books, manuals and workflow materials and forms.
