Two words - WOW and Revealing

David Masters has created a work of art in his book, "The Lawyer's Guide to Adobe Acrobat," published by the American Bar Association Law Practice Management Section. I thought the first two editions were great, but this third edition goes above and beyond. While David Masters is a practicing lawyer in Colorado specializing in Real Estate and Business matters, he's much more than that. David has written tons of articles and made dozens of presentations regarding how lawyers can use technology in their everyday practice. His unique ability to recognize the needs of lawyers and convey useful technology techniques is uncanny. As lawyers are beginning to go with less paper (I don't think there will ever be a true paperless law firm during my life time), they are looking to adapt technology to meet those needs. Adobe provides a powerful tool to create and format almost any type of document. But it's more than creating a PDF, and David shows the user, whether novice or more advanced, just how powerful and easy Adobe Acrobat is to use. I highly recommend this book to all lawyers. Almost every lawyer I know reads PDFs, many create PDFs, but this book is the key to unlocking the true power of Adobe Acrobat for lawyers. Included are how tos for digital signatures, OCRing, commenting, and security. A must read for the legal profession.
