Adobe has continued its push to integrate AI across its product suite by introducing a suite of new AI-powered features in Acrobat. The latest updates enable users to generate podcast summaries from documents, create presentations from notes and files stored in Adobe Spaces, and edit PDFs using simple text prompts. Adobe Spaces, launched last year as a collaborative workspace for teams, now serves as a foundation for AI-driven content creation. Users can pull together financial data, product roadmaps, and competitor research within a single Space and use natural language prompts to generate a customized presentation. For example, a user could request a pitch deck that highlights how their product outperforms competitors, and Acrobat’s AI assistant will draft an editable outline with key talking points. The generated presentation can then be enhanced using Adobe Express’s theme library, stock imagery, or personal visuals. Users can also apply brand-specific templates or make individual slide edits directly within the tool. This functionality competes with existing platforms like Canva and NotebookLM, which already offer document-to-presentation conversion, while newer startups are also emerging with similar AI-driven design tools. In addition, Acrobat now allows users to turn any document or Space into a personalized podcast. The AI synthesizes the content into a spoken summary, complete with natural-sounding narration. This feature joins a growing list of tools such as Google’s NotebookLM, Speechify, and ElevenLabs’ Reader app, which let users convert written content into audio formats. Acrobat’s new prompt-based editing capabilities expand the ways users can interact with PDFs. With 12 supported actions, users can now remove pages, text, comments, or images; replace words or phrases; add e-signatures, passwords, or watermarks—all through simple text instructions. This makes document manipulation faster and more intuitive, especially for non-technical users. Sharing has also been enhanced. When files are shared via Spaces, they now include AI-generated summaries with citations that link directly to specific sections of the document. Team members can comment, suggest edits, or update content in real time. Users can also choose from different AI assistant roles—such as “analyst,” “entertainer,” or “instructor”—or create a custom assistant using a personalized prompt, giving teams greater flexibility in how they interact with their documents. These updates underscore Adobe’s broader strategy to embed AI deeply into its workflow tools, making document management more intelligent, collaborative, and efficient.
