1.0 out of 5 stars Not useful at all, July 21, 2010
By 
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This book is so simplistic and contains so little useful information. I have honestly never seen a book that is this completely useless. If you can click on help in the program and you know how to navigate menus in a program you are ahead of where this book will lead you. Save you money and stay far away from this.

1.0 out of 5 stars Acrobat for Kindergardeners, September 27, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Adobe Acrobat 9 for Windows and Macintosh: Visual QuickStart Guide (Paperback)
If you don't know how to open a file this book might work for you, but if you have worked on a computer for more than a few days you know more than this book teaches. Ten minutes exploring Acrobat will teach you more than this book will.
