Adobe Document Cloud

During the summer of 2015, I had the pleasure of working with the Adobe Document Cloud Experience Design Team. I worked on adding a collaborative space within the Commenting tool in Acrobat.

Creating a collaborative workspace

Using the Document Cloud, users could share a PDF document with others with the new tool, Collaborative Review. Based on internal user research there  were several problems our users wanted this new tool to solve:

  • Choose a document they wanted to share
  • Add a deadline for reviewing the document
  • Added reminders
    • Users can set a time a date to send out reminders
  • Security for the document
    • Added a sign-in only or anyone can view and share this document.

New commenting tools

With the addition of Collaborative PDFs new commenting tools were added to streamline the review process.

  • Users wanted to be able to see who was currently reading/commenting on the document
  • Chat implementation to answer quick questions.
  • Priority of the change
  • Assigning a task to a specific person
  • Approval of the final document

DAshboard

To keep track of changes and documents we designed a dashboard system. Sections of the dashboard and move and be deleted so the user can personalize their own dashboard.
