Acrobat Professional 8 and Reader 8
Envision a simple, elegant, and highly usable interface that exemplifies the new look and feel of Adobe.
- Support the wide range of user types and interface permutations through a flexible and customizable toolbar system.
- Create a logical and scalable menu system that is easily navigable by new users and readily understood by existing users.
- For Acrobat Pro, promote access to the top areas of activity such as PDF conversion, commenting, forms creation, and document security.
- For Reader, create a comfortable reading environment that emphasizes the document rather than the interface.

Updated Infrastructure
The redesign was more than a pixel deep. I was responsible for defining the behavior of a variety of interface systems, including:
- Default page display attributes (fit width versus end-to-end scrolling, zoom level, drag behavior, etc)
- Selection affordances, behaviors, and visual cues
- Navigation panels (left pane contextual information sets)
- Behaviors in Single Document Interface versus Multiple Document Interface mode
- Document self-awareness and conditional interface display depending upon the document being a form, secured, certified, or extended for Reader.
- Menu system information architecture
- Toolbar display, architecture, and behavior in various modes.
