Adobe Acrobat Reader will now allow users to generate and edit images in PDFs . Here’s how the new feature works

Adobe is adding some new generative AI features to Acrobat Reader to help users be more creative and productive with digital documents. The company will now allow users to create and edit images in PDFs using just text prompts.

Powered by Firefly AI, Adobe says Acrobat is the first application to offer in-app generative AI capabilities. The new update adds two new features: Edit Image in Acrobat and Generate Image in Acrobat.

The Edit Image feature will give users access to tools such as generative fill, remove background, erase and crop. It will allow users to erase unwanted objects from images, remove backgrounds and add new images directly from the Acrobat Reader application.

Meanwhile, the Generate Image feature allows users to add new images to their PDFs using the power of the Firefly Image 3 model. With this feature, users will be able to adjust the size and style of an image and add it to any part of a document.

Talking about the need for the new feature, Abhigyan Modi, senior vice president, Adobe Document Cloud, said in a release, โ€œWith generative AI we can advance the category again with image creation and insights across a new range of document types, empowering every customer with a deeper understanding and ability to transform information into compelling content โ€“ with the ease and speed of a simple prompt.โ€

Adobe is also delivering a major update to the Acrobat AI Assistant with two new features: Insights across documents and enhanced meeting transcripts. The Insights feature allows users to identify key themes, trends and relationships across a group of documents, including PDF, Microsoft Word and PowerPoint. The AI assistant also provides usersโ€™ responses, adding citations to help them easily verify the source of information.

Meanwhile, the enhanced transcripts feature will allow users to create generative summaries of a meeting transcript to help them more quickly understand the main themes, key points and action items in the document.
