Datasheet
Bookmarks are navigation buttons that can launch a page, a view, or one of many different Action types
similar to link and button actions. Anyone familiar with Acrobat already knows much about bookmarks
and how to navigate pages by clicking individual bookmarks in the palette.
To learn how to create and manage bookmarks and add actions, see Chapter 17.
How To
The How To pane has been moved from where it appeared in Acrobat 6 and 7. In Acrobat 8, the How To
pane is docked in the Navigation pane and its behavior is similar to other palettes. Here you find help infor-
mation on some key Acrobat editing tasks. Click the links shown in Figure 1.41 and the help information is
displayed in the pane.
For more information on getting help in Acrobat, see the section “Accessing Help” later in this
chapter.
Signatures
Digital signatures help you manage signed documents; the Signatures panel enables you to perform tasks
such as displaying signatures in the Signature pane, verifying signatures, clearing them, deleting them, and
so on. All these editing tasks with signatures are still available in Acrobat Professional as is signature valida-
tion, which is also available in other Acrobat viewers.
For a complete description of creating and managing digital signatures, see Chapter 26.
