The collaboration and sharing services at Acrobat.com include the
following:
Adobe® Buzzword®. Use Buzzword to write and collaborate on docu-
ments. The program includes many common word processing features
(read more in #83, “Working in Buzzword.”)
Adobe® ConnectNow. You can meet with one or two colleagues to
use a shared screen for active collaboration (see #82, “Moving to a Con-
nectNow Meeting Room.”)
Create PDF. You can try out the online PDF le converter—read more
in the sidebar “Create a PDF File Online.”
Share. Use the Share service to store your les, and send your col-
leagues a link to the le rather than sending or distributing les by e-mail
(for more, turn to #79, “Starting a Shared Review.”)

les (read about using les in #81, “Participating Online.”)
