A Comprehensive Disappointment
The prime difference between version 6 and version 7 is the inclusion of Adobe Lifecycle Designer. I don't know what's going on with this book. This book says virtually nothing on such an important area. It does little to address database connections.
Unfortunately, there is no real reference for this program.
It covers commenting and stuff like that, but overall it is a big heavy great looking book that has left me still struggling.

Useless for Designer Forms
All of the information in this book (Chapters 26-29) is wrong about that app--none of the dialog boxes match, or are even close, and the program doesn't work the way it's described. I bought this specifically for information about using the new LiveCycle Designer application that comes with Acrobat Professional to create interactive PDF forms. I'm guessing that Adobe changed it after the book was written. .

The Childrens Bible
. A bible for the inexperienced with acrobat. If you have never opened up the program, than I could see how this might be considered a bible. Just like any childrens bible is compared to a regular bible.

If you have any experience with acrobat, don't waiste your time.
