With the latest release of Acrobat DC, we have some amazing new features available which enable you to do more.

 

1. What’s new: Contextual help content from within the application

 

What is does?

Acrobat now provides contextual help that allows single-click access to the help content in the context of the tool or feature you’re using.

 

For example, If you are using the Edit tool, clicking the Help menu, or help (?) icon, or pressing the F1 key takes you to the Edit PDF help page.

2. What’s new: Protected mode (sandbox) support in Acrobat

We’re introducing the Protected Mode (sandbox) feature in Acrobat. Earlier, it was only available in Acrobat Reader.

The Protected Mode (sandbox) is a core architecture change and covers all the features and workflows in Acrobat. By default, the Protected Mode is turned off.

 

How to enable it?

To enable Protected Mode in Acrobat:

On the menu, go to Edit > Preferences.

From the Categories, click Security (Enhanced), and then select Enable Protected Mode at Startup (Preview).

Quit Acrobat and relaunch.

NoteAdobe is testing the new protected mode feature in Acrobat. Therefore, the feature may not be available to all Acrobat users.

 

 

3. What’s New: Simplified Redact tool 

 

What it does:

The decluttered Redact tool now shows only the two main options in the toolbar: Redact Text & Images and Sanitize Document.

Now you can Redact Text and Images - 

The Redact Text & Images action is selected by default. It enables you to start marking the text and images you want to redact without having to select any action in the tool. Click the drop-down to Redact Pages, Find Text & Redact, or set the appearance of redaction marks using Properties.

The Remove Hidden Information is now an optional action within the Sanitize Document action. When you sanitize a document, it removes the hidden information as well. To selectively remove hidden information, click Sanitize Document and then click the Click Here hyperlink.
