Use the MyFiles feature at Acrobat.com as an online repository to store
your les. Depending on workow, you may want to store les for distrib-
uting to others for review or for collaborating in ConnectNow. Or you may
want to store les so that you can access them from your laptop during
your vacation at the lake.
Open MyFiles online using one of several commands in Acrobat 9,
Adobe Reader 9, or via Acrobat.com—read about your options in the
sidebar “Finding Your Files.” Once the application launches, you see the
les you’ve uploaded arranged in the last sort option used in your previ-
ous Acrobat.com session (Figure 81a).

Going Live Online
Instead of starting a review
in Acrobat, share a docu-
ment directly from MyFiles
in Acrobat.com. Although
you don’t have a wizard on
Acrobat.com, the process
is similar, with these
exceptions:
•
To start, click Share on
one of the application
screens to show the
Share fields. By default,
the Share fields are
added to the MyFiles
window, above the file
list.
•
To identify files for
sharing, drag a file from
the MyFiles area on the
window to the “Choose
files to share” list. Click
Browse, locate and select
a file from your compu-
ter, and click Upload to
add additional files for
sharing. The file is added
to the share list and
included in the MyFiles
listing.
•
Click Share With to open
a list of e-mail addresses;
the list includes only
those addresses you’ve
used in Acrobat.com.
Check out #79, “Starting a
Shared Review, ” for more
information.
