If you’re a Microsoft Teams user and you haven’t integrated Adobe DC, then you’re missing out. Get the ability to create, share, view, sign, split and merge PDFs all within your Microsoft Teams app. For the user, this means no more switching between apps, managing multiple file versions, or losing track of a workflow.
Let’s take a closer look at these enhanced collaboration and productivity capabilities:
Adobe DC also includes Adobe Sign, the recommended solution for Microsoft’s entire portfolio of apps. This means that right within Microsoft Teams you can sign documents and send them for legally binding e-signature and approval – using familiar Adobe PDF tools and Microsoft Teams workflows. Here’s how it works:
This means everything from HR onboarding, sales proposals, to procurement and legal procedures, can instantly maximise productivity as you create, manage, share approvals and gather signatures directly from Microsoft Teams. Some of the standout features:
With a raft of new features from Adobe and Microsoft, replacing tedious, inefficient processes with smart automation has never been easier.
Microsoft has created an app to help you manage approval processes in Microsoft Teams. Get a real-time view of the whole process and the current status of your documents. Even when working with partners or customers you can track everything within Microsoft Teams. If you need a signature, Adobe Sign is built into the app. Take a look at our infographic for the complete workflow.
This new remote signing feature allows Teams users to host and witness e-signatures in Teams video meetings. Here’s how it works – from a Teams video meeting, the document senders can explain each page of a document or agreement, field questions and ensure all parties understand before asking recipients to sign the document live (with a legally binding e-signature) during the Teams meeting.
Using Live Sign keeps the efficiency, transparency and audit logs of the e-sign process but brings the added human element through the online meeting.
Staff often use a mobile device to access documents. However, reading and studying PDFs on a small screen can be frustrating with users having to pinch and zoom to hone-in on the relevant sections of a document. Liquid Mode was developed to improve the readability of PDFs on mobile devices. Accessing Liquid Mode reflows the text of the document for a more responsive and readable form by optimising the document for the current screen size – regardless of device orientation. Users can also manually adjust font size and line spacing to suit their reading style.
In this way, Liquid Mode extends the power of your Microsoft Teams integration – allowing users on mobile devices, to easily access, read and sign contracts on the go.
Available to Windows 10 users at no additional cost, Power Automate Desktop is a user-friendly application that connects different apps and services into coordinated multi-step workflows to automate tedious, manual tasks across employee onboarding, agreements and contracts, reports, invoices etc.
The new Adobe PDF Tools connector for Microsoft Power Automate integrates with the Adobe PDF Tools API, so IT can add actions to any of your PDF workflows – such as creating searchable PDFs, compressing a PDF, converting formats, protecting, merging, splitting and more. All of this can be done from the Microsoft Teams platform. Automating these commonly performed tasks reduces errors, further streamlines tasks and avoids the need to jump from app to app to complete simple everyday tasks.
If you’re already collaborating in Microsoft Teams then it’s time to take your digital workflows to the next level with Adobe DC – allowing you to work smarter, not harder.
