Adobe has introduced updates to Acrobat that enhance how organisations use the AI Assistant and work across multiple documents.

To continue accessing these features without interruption, not-for-profits using Acrobat will need to complete a couple of simple updates by 31 May 2026.

The updated AI Assistant now provides:
