I don't know what's going on with this book. The prime difference between version 6 and version 7 is the inclusion of Adobe Lifecycle Designer. This book says virtually nothing on such an important area. It does little to address database connections. Unfortunately, there is no real reference for this program. It covers commenting and stuff like that, but overall it is a big heavy great looking book that has left me still struggling.

I bought this specifically for information about using the new LiveCycle Designer application that comes with Acrobat Professional to create interactive PDF forms. All of the information in this book (Chapters 26-29) is wrong about that app--none of the dialog boxes match, or are even close, and the program doesn't work the way it's described. I'm guessing that Adobe changed it after the book was written.

A bible for the inexperienced with acrobat.. If you have never opened up the program, than I could see how this might be considered a bible. Just like any childrens bible is compared to a regular bible. If you have any experience with acrobat, don't waiste your time.
