One of the standout additions is Generate Podcast, a tool that transforms documents - such as meeting transcripts, reports, notes, and related files - into short, podcast-style audio summaries. These audio clips allow users to quickly review key points before meetings, stay updated on conversations they missed, or consume information while commuting or multitasking.
The feature is not limited to professional use. It can also convert newsletters, learning materials, or groups of documents into customized audio updates, offering a hands-free way to absorb information without reading through long text files.
While Adobe has developed its own AI models for audio, the current implementation relies on a Microsoft GPT model for transcription and a Google-powered voice system, according to reports. Adobe has indicated that this setup may evolve as it continues testing and refining its technology. Google’s NotebookLM includes a similar audio summary feature, but Acrobat’s widespread use in handling PDFs could give Adobe an advantage in adoption.
Adobe is also rolling out Generate Presentation, which allows users to convert existing content into organized slide decks. Through Acrobat’s AI assistant, PDFs, web pages, and reports can be analyzed to produce a presentation structure automatically. The slides are then built using Adobe Express templates, with users able to adjust factors such as tone, style, and length.
Together, these updates signal Adobe’s push to make its document tools more dynamic, helping users move more quickly from raw information to usable content.
