Adobe, here is the Liquid Mode for PDFs on smartphones
Adobe has introduced a new reading mode for mobile PDFs, something that is likely to radically change the reading experience on small screens. Its name is "Liquid Mode", its icon is a small droplet and its usefulness is extreme when it comes to reading a long structured and complex document.

Adobe Liquid Mode: PDF becomes responsive

Research has easily confirmed what was widely held, namely that using PDFs on mobile was a problem. Too long, too complex, with too small fonts. But above all, it is their fixed structure that complicates things and forces the zoom on the characters that leads to losing sight of the overall structure of the page. A small click from the Acrobat Reader app will now try to change things.



Liquid Mode is activated with a simple click on the appropriate icon: texts, titles and images on the page are functionally separated and managed, so as to make everything "responsive" so that consultation is also possible from mobile. What changes, then? Change everything.



Adobe Sensei, artificial intelligence and machine learning are the elements put in place to enable this type of dynamic reinterpretation of the document: with the passage of time and the documents consulted, Adobe intends to further refine the solutions adopted, thus making Liquid Mode increasingly reliable and performing.

A new way of thinking about PDFs on the move is born: Liquid Mode preserves its role, but adapts its shape, clearly generating a great advantage for the end user. Those who are used to working on their smartphone can well imagine how this novelty could represent a great little revolution.
