Hello, I’m Denise!

I’ve marked up many thousands of PDF pages using Adobe Reader DC, so I know my way around it!
And yes, that’s the FREE version, not Pro.
In my experience everything you need to produce an accurately marked-up text is available to you in the free version, so no additional expense is needed.
With this course you’ll improve your efficiency by learning to make the best use of the available settings and tools.
And you’ll be confident that you’re providing a professional service, using best practice to mark up files in a way that makes it easy for clients to work through your corrections.
