With Adobe Acrobat, you can work on whatever software platform you choose and create PDFs with one click from Word, Excel, Outlook, Internet Explorer, Publisher, Access or PowerPoint. And Acrobat provides all of the security and compilation tools you'll need.
The security features include username/password protection; ability to disable print, copy, and paste; restrict editing of your eBook; and authenticate and protect PDFs with digital signatures. You can create fill-able forms for submission; use PDF wide search functionality, sticky notes, highlighting, lines, shapes, etc... and Adobe's list goes on!
