Adobe, with the coming of Acrobat 9 and the integration of Acrobat.com, is moving the PDF format into the cloud. The tools are mainly designed for the business crowd, and bring features of collaboration and integrated multimedia. The $699 (U.S.) Acrobat 9 Pro Extended version includes a feature called Presenter, that allows the user to turn Microsoft PowerPoint presentations into multimedia files and publish them as PDF files. The Acrobat.com offering, which is currently in beta, has "...file sharing and storage, a PDF converter, an online word processor and Web conferencing." according to the Globe and Mail.

Flaw found in Adobe PDF file format that could be exploited, hacker says
Security researcher, Petko Petkov, says he's discovered a flaw in the Adobe PDF file format that could allow a Windows PC to be "Completely!!! Invisibly and unwillingly!!!," compromised. Petkov, who also recently discovered a vulnerability in QuickTime that affected the Firefox browser says " All it takes is to open a PDF document or stumble across a page which embeds one." He has stated that he would not release code that shows how this attack works until Adobe addresses the problem. InfoWorld has the story here.
