I.  Morning session

	Date:  Thursday, August 21
	Time:  10am - noon
	NEW ROOM 3-270
	Presentation:  Adobe Acrobat 6 in Education

Adobe Acrobat 6.0 in Education

Adobe Acrobat 6.0 is a powerful tool for education because of its ability to
PDF from just about anything. Since PDF is a portable, accessible, and
reliable, it is a good choice for the exchange of electronic documents
within a heterogeneous computing environment.

However, that is only a small bit of the power of Acrobat. With Adobe
Acrobat 6.0, you can shave hours and dollars off the process of working with
the documents you want to exchange. This presentation will cover those
aspects of adobe Acrobat that can do just that. We'll see how to effectively
archive PDF files, scan document from paper and convert them to
text-searchable PDF, review and comment with colleagues around campus or
around the globe, and add security to the mix to prevent your sensitive
content from being usurped while en route.

Tim Plumer is an Acrobat Product Specialist. He has been working with Adobe
Acrobat since it's early inception, and over the last ten years, has helped
many organizations take full advantage of this exciting technology. He is
now responsible for evangelizing the newest release, Adobe Acrobat 6.0

II.  Afternoon session

	Date:  Thursday, August 21
	Time:  1:30 - 3:30 pm
	NEW ROOM 3-270
	Presentation:  Acrobat 6.0 Accessibility Features

Acrobat 6.0 Accessibility Features

Learn about features available in Acrobat 6.0 for checking and 
authoring PDFs that are accessible to users with disabilities.   Some 
of the features include:

*  Acrobat Accessibility Checker
*  Create and optimize accessible PDF forms using the Tags palette
*  Convert existing PDF documents to tagged PDF files
*  Compression tools for tagged PDF documents.
*  Creating secure PDFs that are still accessible to users of 
assistive technologies.

Who might benefit from this?  Anyone who authors PDFs for course 
materials, public information, employee information and other 
applications.   MIT is in the process of developing accessible 
authoring guidelines for PDFs to comply with federal accessibility 
laws.
