There’s a hot conversation going on at TechMeme over the reported negotiations going on between Adobe and Microsoft over whether Office 2007 will include PDF support. Supposedly Adobe doesn’t want PDF support integrated into Office 2007.
Actually Brian Jones from the Office team is indicating that there’s a resolution underway: The PDF support will be available as a separate download. If both sides are game, this sounds fine by me. Isn’t this cooperation a good sign? In fact, Brian, if you decide to blog about this again, why not show how this illustrates how important Partners are to Microsoft? As Office becomes more and more of a platform in itself, it’s worthwhile to point out how the Office team is working and facilitating its partners.
