Xdocs vs. Adobe: No competition | |
|
||
| Time: 09:12 EST/14:12 GMT | News Source: ZDNet | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||

Two weeks ago Microsoft announced XDocs, a new application that will be part of the upcoming Office 11 suite. XDocs, according to Microsoft, will make it easier to create richly formatted online forms, and to simplify the collection of form data. Because it uses XML, XDocs form data should integrate with a variety of data repositories with relative ease. The first reaction from tech pundits was to proclaim that a mortal blow had been struck against Adobe, the PDF file format, and Adobe's Acrobat family of PDF manipulation products. Adobe's stock took an immediate hit, and some analysts went so far as to compare Adobe to erstwhile MS competitor Netscape. | ||

OH THANK YOU GOD!!!
I'm so sick of Adobe CrapWare -- Acrobat being one of the poster children. |

daz, I guess you didn't read the piece. Even though it's titled "No Competition," the conclusion is there will be no clear winner for some time to come, and that Adobe has some advantages and in sme ways doesn't compete.
What Adobe products are you complaining about? You sound like an IT/dev guy complaining about apps he doesn't know about... |
