Software giant Adobe has launched new generative Artificial Intelligence (gen AI) tools to its productivity apps, including Acrobat and Adobe Express.
Adobe has introduced a new chat-based AI tool in Acrobat that offers a smarter, faster way to complete essential PDF tasks with simple, natural-language prompts.
Users can remove pages, text, comments and images, find and replace words and phrases, on a PDF document with just voice prompts to the AI chatbot.
It can even add e-signatures, passwords and more. For beginners, it has an enhanced Help Panel that offers clear, step-by-step instructions and troubleshooting support via chat.
Another breakthrough feature of Acrobat is that users can turn a document or a PDF in to power point presentation file with voice commands.

Users can just ask AI to generate an outline from the information in the files and then create a polished presentation — quickly and without being an expert in presentation design.
Also, Acrobat users have quick access to the tools of Adobe Express and a library of professional presentation templates to refine the PPT.
The user can select the design they want, and Adobe Express generates a draft.
And the user never has to leave Acrobat, he/she can use the intuitive tools and AI in Express to make any edits they like — without needing to generate new slides.

Users can easily swap out an image or add a video by generating a new one or choosing one from Adobe Stock. Additionally, they can easily change fonts, rewrite copy and even animate the final slide to really make the ending pop.
Adobe Acrobat also gets a new AI tool that can convert any long emails or PDFs with hundreds of pages into a custom podcast audio file. Users can just ask the AI Assistant to summarise the information into an engaging podcast-style summary that can be used to prep for a big meeting. Users can listen audio podcast while sitting at the desk, or in the car while driving home or walking the pet.
Adobe is expected to bring more such gen AI tools to Acrobat and Adobe Express apps.
