Adobe comes to Gemini and expands what you can do in Claude
Acrobat expands in Claude with new PDF tools, interactive editing, and Document Review, while Adobe also launches Gemini support for creative and productivity workflows across chat-based assistants.
Introducing Adobe in Gemini
At Adobe, we build pro-grade tools people trust to create their best work and be more productive. Increasingly, that work is starting inside AI chatbot platforms, where people brainstorm ideas, solve problems and get things done. We want Adobe to be there too, making it easy for you to call on our tools to create high-quality content and take your work further, right from the conversation.
We’ve already brought Adobe to ChatGPT, Claude, Slack, and Copilot, and today we’re extending that work in two exciting ways. First, we’re bringing Adobe to Gemini. Second, we’re introducing Acrobat tools to our Adobe for Claude plugin for the first time, bringing our creative and productivity tools together, while also adding interactive editing capabilities that give you hands-on control to edit PDFs and customize Adobe Express designs right inside Claude.
Google Gemini has quickly become one of the world’s most widely used AI assistant platforms, helping more than one billion people each month find answers, explore ideas and tackle everyday tasks. With the new Adobe in Gemini, you can call on pro-grade tools from Photoshop, Lightroom, Express and Firefly to enhance photos, create marketing assets and customize designs, all through a conversation with Gemini. Describe the outcome you want, and Adobe orchestrates the right tools and steps to get you there.
“We’re excited to expand our partnership with Adobe and bring industry-leading creative tools directly into Gemini. Now, anyone can create, edit and bring their ideas to life right in the chat.” – Neal Pancholi, Managing Director, Global Partnerships, GDM & Gemini, Google
Here are a few ways you can use Adobe in Gemini:
- Create consistent, polished product photos: Upload your product photos and describe the look you’re after. Adobe can help optimize lighting and color, crop images consistently and prepare a polished collection that’s ready for your storefront, website or marketing materials.
- Turn one design into content for your social channels: Ask Adobe to create social-ready versions while preserving your branding and messaging, making it easier to adapt and publish content wherever your audience spends time.
- Customize professionally designed templates for your marketing needs: Describe your campaign, target audience and the style you’re looking for, and Adobe will surface Express designs that best match your needs. From there, you can ask Adobe to personalize the text, imagery and colors to quickly create polished marketing materials.
Today’s launch is the first step in our journey with Google to make our tools available in Gemini. As we’ve done across other AI platforms, we’ll continue to enhance the experience with more tools for creativity and productivity.
More ways to create, edit and refine your work in Claude
Earlier this year, we brought our pro-grade creative tools into Claude. Since launch, we’ve been delighted by feedback from creators about how the experience keeps their work moving — from a photographer refining light, color and consistency across an entire photo series to a creative director who significantly cut the time required to develop an eco-fashion campaign.
Now, the Adobe for Claude plugin is becoming a lot more powerful. We’re adding Acrobat tools to our plugin for the first time, bringing them together with our existing creative tools in one unified Adobe plugin. You can now call on more than 80 pro-grade tools across Acrobat, Express, Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, Lightroom, InDesign, Adobe Stock and more — all from the same Claude conversation. We’re also introducing new interactive editing capabilities that greatly expand how you can work with our tools in Claude. You can still describe the outcome you want and let the Adobe plugin orchestrate the work, but now you can also step directly into your content to edit PDFs and customize Express designs yourself.
Here are some of the new ways you can work with Adobe in Claude:
- Work with Acrobat tools in Claude: The Adobe plugin now includes popular Acrobat tools for working with PDFs. Organize PDFs by deleting, combining or splitting pages; redact sensitive information; and convert or export PDFs to other file formats.
- Edit and analyze PDFs directly: When you want more hands-on control, open your PDF in the new interactive editor to reorder pages, edit text or mark up the document with comments and highlights. You can also invoke the new Document Review skill and ask Claude to analyze your document and add recommendations and notations directly in the editor.
- Refine designs with Express: Building on the conversational editing already available in Claude, you can now go further with a layer-based interactive editor for Express designs, giving you hands-on control over individual elements of the design. Select and customize images, copy, colors and fonts independently, so you can refine exactly what you want without needing to regenerate the entire design — all within your Claude workflow.
These additions build on Adobe’s expansive set of creative tools already available in Claude for refining images individually or in batches, creating vectors and layouts, editing and assembling videos, and adapting content for different channels. Now, those tools can work alongside Acrobat tools to carry your project all the way through in Claude.
Go from an idea to the outcome you want with Adobe
AI chatbot platforms are making it easier than ever to turn an idea into something tangible. But getting to the result you want often takes more. Images need refinement. Designs need customization. Content needs to be adapted for different channels. Documents need to be reviewed, edited and shared.
That’s where the depth of our tools matters. For decades, we’ve built technologies to help you create your best work and be more productive. Now, we’re making that expertise easier to access across AI platforms. Whether you’re new to Adobe or an avid user of our apps, you can describe the outcome you want and call on our tools to help get you there. Call on Adobe to handle more of the workflow directly in the AI chatbot platforms you use or continue in our flagship apps when your work calls for even greater depth and precision. Wherever your conversation starts, Adobe can help you turn what you imagine into something you can use, build on and share.

Stylize PDFs using Adobe Express design tools
Acrobat adds Adobe Express design tools to help users stylize PDFs with shapes, icons, color themes, backgrounds, stock images, and font recommendations. It also supports Adobe Express templates for eligible English PDFs on Individual or Teams plans, while keeping the original PDF unchanged.
Learn how to enhance the look of your PDFs by applying Adobe Express design tools in Acrobat.
In Adobe Acrobat, you can stylize a PDF using Adobe Express design tools and with Adobe Express templates. With Adobe Express design tools, you can refresh the look of your PDF by adding shapes and icons, applying color themes, and updating backgrounds.

Follow the steps below to stylize your PDF using Adobe Express design tools:
Open the PDF and select Edit from the global bar.
Select Stylize this PDF under DESIGN WITH ADOBE EXPRESS.
Your PDF opens in Adobe Express in a new browser tab.

Master your classes and prep for what's next with Student Spaces in Acrobat
Acrobat launches Student Spaces worldwide for free, expanding its AI-powered study hub with adaptive flashcards and quizzes, editable summaries, handwritten note conversion, citation generation, resume feedback, interview help, and Android app access.
You know the feeling: two quizzes the same day, a term paper staring you down, a group project you have to wrangle, and an internship opportunity application you’re trying to make really stand out. With only so many hours in the day, you need to focus your time on learning the material, not on busy work. That’s the problem Student Spaces in Acrobat set out to solve when we launched it in beta this spring.
Today, we're excited to announce that Student Spaces, our AI-powered study hub, is now available to students worldwide, for free. We’re building Student Spaces with students, bringing you more ways to study smarter, new tools to build trust into your work, and features that will support you from the classroom straight into your career.
Learn more with AI you can trust and tools that professionals use
Here's what's new in Student Spaces in Acrobat:
- Focus your study time: You can already generate flashcards, quizzes, mind maps, podcasts, video summaries and more directly from your course materials and notes, so you spend less time organizing and more time actually learning. Now, flashcards and quizzes track your answers and adapt to what you still need to practice. You can even edit to make them your own.
- Create properly formatted citations easily: Every answer already links back to your source material, so you always know where the information came from. Starting later this month, you can also generate properly formatted citations in APA, MLA, Chicago and more just by entering a title, URL, DOI or ISBN.
- Study smarter with summary sheets: Upload your documents to instantly generate a customizable, editable half-sheet, one-page or two-page overview of the must-know facts, perfect for prepping before an exam or for exam-prep notes sheet.
- Convert handwritten notes into text: You asked for it: now you can upload handwritten notes directly into Student Spaces, where they're converted into digital, searchable text.
- Get resume feedback and interview help: The AI Assistant can help review and provide feedback on your resume, along with helping you to prep for interviews, so you're ready when internship and job opportunities come around.
- Study more flexibly: Video summaries are now editable too, so you can focus on the question or topic, theme and narration, so it’ truly customized to how you study. Plus, Student Spaces is now available directly in the Acrobat app on Android, so you can study wherever you are.
"I really like how it'll cite the source that I got it from. You can click on it, and it'll bring you directly to the source on the other side.”
– Max, majoring in Applied MathBuilt on a foundation you already know
Your school life runs on PDFs: syllabi, course readings, lecture slides, lab reports, and even the forms for your next internship. Student Spaces builds on Acrobat's decades of experience helping people work with PDFs. The AI isn't guessing at your material, it's reading the same documents you already rely on every day and grounding every answer in it.
That's the difference between an AI tool bolted onto your classwork and one built for it. Whether you're breaking down a dense reading, polishing a presentation or getting ready for an internship interview, Student Spaces is designed to help you stand out, not stress out.
"I got to see how feedback turns into actual product changes at Adobe. It's one thing to use a tool. It's another to help build it.”
– Sheetal, master’s student in Computer Software EngineeringMade with students, for students
We aren't guessing what you need; we're listening to your feedback and building Student Spaces with students, for students. The beta taught us a lot, and today's launch reflects what you told us mattered most: tools you can trust, study help that actually sticks, and a clear path from the classroom to your career.
Use Student Spaces today
Whatever's on your plate this semester, Student Spaces is built to make it a little easier. And best of all: it's free. Just upload your docs, generate your first study set, and invite your classmates in.
Get started today!

Show up sharper, faster with new Acrobat AI
Acrobat adds AI-powered ways to read and refine documents, turning dense files into interactive reports, summary slides and visuals, plus audio summaries and read-aloud. It also brings Stylize tools with Adobe Express templates to give PDFs a polished, professional look.
Turn dense docs into visuals you can scan in minutes
All too often, the best insights are buried in walls of text. With new interactive reports and summary slides, Acrobat can take dense documents and turn them into something visual and easy to absorb, like charts or key takeaways. Built-in navigation lets you scan the headlines or dig into the detail.
Say you run a small business and get your quarterly financials back. Instead of reading line by line, you can turn the text-heavy report into graphs and charts that visualize your revenue trends and cost drivers, so you can literally see the impact. A marketer pulling together competitor research or customer feedback can do the same thing: drop in the source material, and instead of scanning rows of numbers, they can see the trend line rise and fall at a glance. HR teams reviewing headcount data can turn spreadsheets full of numbers into an infographic that clearly shows which teams are understaffed and need more support.
Listen and learn, wherever you are
Sometimes the best way to absorb information isn't on a screen at all. New AI audio features in Acrobat like personal podcasts, audio summaries, and read-aloud let you turn any document, or even a collection of documents, into something you can listen to.
Picture a market analyst with five research reports to get through before a Monday meeting. Instead of blocking off an afternoon, they can pull those reports into Acrobat, generate a podcast-style summary, and listen to it on their commute or during a workout. Same information, same rigor, delivered in a format that fits into a life that doesn't always have a free desk hour.
Give plain PDFs a polished, professional look
How professional information is packaged up and presented makes a difference in how it lands. New Stylize capabilities let you take plain documents, like resumes, invoices, reports, and client proposals and apply one of thousands of professionally designed Adobe Express templates, while keeping every word of your original content intact. Edit and refine as needed, and you have something that shouts, “I’m a pro!” in minutes, not hours.
For a small business, it means invoices and reports that reflect the quality and care of the work behind them. For someone looking for a next job, it means getting an updated resume with a pro polish in minutes.
Built on decades of trust
Every year, people open more than 400 billion PDFs and share more than 200 million documents with Acrobat. Some of the world’s largest companies rely on Acrobat for everything from multimillion-dollar contracts to secret formulas. That trust is built into the experience: when you ask questions of your documents in Acrobat, answers include clickable citations so you can verify the source, and Adobe does not train its models on your document data.
Work smarter with every document
Acrobat is helping redefine what it means to read and edit documents in the age of AI. Instead of poring over every word or number from beginning to end, you can understand information visually and listen to engaging audio at your desk or on the go. And when you want to turn plain docs into polished deliverables, Acrobat makes it simple to show up like a pro. With AI in Acrobat, we’re making it faster and easier for you to get the expertise you need, make decisions with confidence and do your best work every day.

Introducing Adobe for Slack: Turn your ideas and conversations into high-quality content
Acrobat joins Adobe for Slack, bringing Adobe’s creative and productivity tools into Slack so teams can create, edit and transform content from conversations, files and Canvas. The new app is now available globally for Slack Business+ and Enterprise+ customers.
Your new creative and document workflows, right inside Slack
Millions of people use Slack every day to collaborate, share ideas and keep work moving. Chances are much of the context behind your next deliverable already lives there: your project brief is in a Canvas, you share feedback in your conversations, or that reference file your teammate shared last week is still there, too. With Adobe for Slack, you can draw on that context to create high-quality images, videos, documents and more, all inside Slack.
Today, we’re introducing Adobe for Slack, available now for Slack Business+ and Enterprise+ teams. It brings more than 70 pro-grade tools from Adobe’s creative and productivity suites, including Firefly, Adobe Express, Photoshop, Premiere, Acrobat, InDesign, Illustrator, Stock, Lightroom and more, into Slack. Install the Adobe app, describe the outcome you want in your own words to Slackbot, Slack's built-in personal AI teammate, and Slackbot will call on the right Adobe tools to help bring your idea to life. You can also ask Slackbot to pull in relevant context from your conversations, files, channels and Canvases, so the Adobe app can draw on it as you create and refine your work.
“Slack is where work happens, and where AI is turning conversation into action. Bringing Adobe's industry-leading creative and productivity tools directly into that flow means teams don't have to leave their conversations to create. Adobe for Slack lets people turn the context and ideas already in their conversations into incredible content, then refine and build on it together, without breaking their stride. The Adobe app is a powerful example of how MCP apps in Slack can help teams turn conversation into action.”
– Jaime DeLanghe, Chief Product Officer, SlackWhether you’re a marketer building campaign assets, a social media strategist refining creative for different channels, or a digital worker turning data and information into customer-ready documents, Adobe for Slack gives you new ways to create, collaborate and keep your work moving, right where the conversations shaping it are happening:
- Turn project plans and conversations into high-quality content: Ask Slackbot to find and summarize information from your conversation or Canvas, then call on the Adobe app to turn that context into PDFs, images and videos you can share with your team in Slack.
- Put your Creative Cloud assets to work: Ask Slackbot to search your Creative Cloud assets by subject, style or mood to quickly find content from past projects or campaigns, then bring the right assets into your Slack workflow to continue editing.
- Adapt campaign creative across channels: Take approved images and videos, and quickly create variations sized for your social channels.
- Create high-quality designs from templates: Browse thousands of design templates, choose the right one for your project, customize the copy and colors, then animate it for social media or turn it into a print-ready PDF.
- Turn data into shareable content: Bring in a spreadsheet and call on the Adobe app to transform the information into a PDF or visual you can share with your team or client.
- Edit and refine images in bulk: Quickly refine sets of images like team headshots, event photos or product imagery. Remove backgrounds and distractions, adjust lighting and tone, crop and resize images, and more — all from Slack.
Keep the creative process moving through conversation. Ask Slackbot, powered by Adobe’s pro-grade tools, to refine your work, make another edit or create a variation, then share it into a team channel so others can review it, build on it and shape what happens next. The Adobe app brings creation closer to the conversations shaping your work. And when you want greater creative control, pixel-level precision, or more ways to work with and get insights from your documents, you can continue in Adobe’s flagship apps like Adobe Express, Photoshop, Premiere, Acrobat and Firefly — giving you even more ways to create and get work done as your work evolves.

Edit text with chat
Acrobat adds AI Assistant text editing for PDFs, letting users replace, rewrite, reformat, restructure, and redact content with natural language prompts on desktop and web. It previews matches, supports multiple instances, and helps users confirm changes before applying them.
Learn how to replace, rewrite, reformat, restructure, and redact text in your PDF using natural language with the AI Assistant in Adobe Acrobat.
Before you begin
Editing text with chat is available to paid Acrobat users on desktop and web, with the app language set to English. Check the supported tools and actions to confirm what is available on your plan.
When working with PDFs in Acrobat, the AI Assistant understands your document structure and content, so you can describe how you want to change your text in plain language, and it performs the action for you. Instead of finding the text and editing it manually, you describe the change, and the AI Assistant identifies the matching text by meaning, in single or multiple instances, shows you a preview, and confirms with you before the update.
You can ask the AI Assistant to perform the following actions:
- Rewrite text: Rephrase a passage for tone, length, or clarity, one section at a time.
- Replace text: Swap text for wording across multiple instances you provide, by exact match or by meaning.
- Reformat text: Change how text looks, such as font style, size, and color, or highlight it.
- Restructure text: Change how text is organized, such as turning a paragraph into a bulleted list, one section at a time.
- Redact text: Permanently remove or mask sensitive information, such as names,Social Security numbers, or account numbers. Works on a single occurrence or across multiple instances.
Open the PDF in Acrobat.
Select AI Assistant in the top bar to open the chat panel.
In the chat field, describe the change in natural language. For example:
- To replace: Replace all instances of draft with final or change all dates to DD-MM-YYYY.
- To rewrite: Make the executive summary more concise or rewrite the introduction in a more formal tone.
- To redact: Remove all instances that mention Social Security numbers in this document.
- To restructure: Convert the recommendations into bullet points or combine the list into a single paragraph.
- To reformat: Make all headings in this document blue.
Tip
You can ask the AI Assistant to make more than one text change in a single request. For example, ask it to replace product names with Aurora and company names with Brightfield simultaneously. If a change does not run as expected, add more detail to your prompt, such as section names, or page numbers.
Select Submit.
Review the highlighted text and the count of matches that AI Assistant found in the chat panel.
When your request matches more than one occurrence, AI Assistant highlights every match and takes you through them one at a time. You can preview each replacement before you confirm it, and changes are applied one instance at a time.
Select Replace or Accept based on your request to apply the change or select Skip to move to the next instance.
Note
To undo the action performed by the AI Assistant, select Undo from the top bar. If a change does not run as expected, add more detail to your prompt, such as specific wording, section names, or page numbers. If a tool does not support chat editing, the AI Assistant provides step-by-step guidance instead. If the problem persists, check common issues and their fixes.

Introducing Adobe for ChatGPT: Create, edit and get work done — all in ChatGPT
Acrobat brings Adobe’s pro-grade creative and productivity tools into ChatGPT with a new unified plugin for creating images, videos, designs and polished PDFs. Available globally on ChatGPT web and app, it connects users to Acrobat and other Adobe apps right in conversation.
If you're one of the hundreds of millions of people or two million businesses using ChatGPT to brainstorm, research and solve problems, you can now take those conversations further — creating high-quality images, videos, designs and documents.
Today, we’re introducing the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT
Today, we’re introducing the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT, bringing Adobe’s pro-grade tools for creativity and productivity together in a single unified plugin that works across ChatGPT Work and Codex. Simply activate the Adobe plugin, describe what you want to create, and it automatically brings together the right Adobe tools behind the scenes to get you there. Drawing on more than 70 tools across Adobe’s creative and productivity suites, the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT supports a wide range of workflows, from editing photos and creating campaign videos to designing marketing assets and generating polished PDFs — all through rich, interactive experiences right in the flow of the conversation. That breadth of capabilities means the plugin can adapt to the needs of your project, and when you want advanced editing, creative control or pixel-level precision, you can continue your work in Adobe’s apps right where you left off.
"We're building ChatGPT to connect our users with the best capabilities for the task at hand.

What makes the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT different
Over the past few months, we’ve expanded access to Adobe’s tools across leading AI chatbot platforms, including ChatGPT, Claude and Copilot, with Slack and Gemini coming soon. The Adobe plugin in ChatGPT builds on that work by bringing the power of our creative and productivity apps together in one unified plugin that draws on the same tools and capabilities that power our own agents in Adobe apps. That means you're creating with the same trusted pro-grade tools that creative professionals and digital workers use every day, backed by Adobe's expansive creative and productivity app ecosystem, the only one with the breadth and depth to support end-to-end creative and document productivity workflows.
How to get started with the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT
- Open ChatGPT, go to Plugins, and add the Adobe plugin.
- Start a new chat, then type “@Adobe” and select Adobe from the menu or use the “+” button to choose it from your installed plugins.
- Continue as a guest or sign in with your Adobe account for an even richer experience.
You can start creating immediately as a guest using a broad set of Adobe tools. Sign in with your Adobe account to unlock generative capabilities, access your Creative Cloud files, and save your work across sessions, making it even easier to pick up where you left off in ChatGPT.
Push your ideas even further in Adobe’s apps
The Adobe plugin in ChatGPT is designed to meet you where you’re already working, making it easy to move from ideas to high-quality content inside ChatGPT. When your project calls for deeper creative exploration, advanced editing or pixel-level precision and control, Adobe’s apps are where you can push your ideas even further. For example, you might batch edit a set of product photos in ChatGPT with the Adobe plugin, then open your hero image in Photoshop to explore different creative directions, composite multiple assets, refine every detail with layers and masks, and perfect the final image.
Start creating with the Adobe plugin in ChatGPT today
The Adobe plugin in ChatGPT is available globally starting today on ChatGPT web and app. As we learn from how you're using the Adobe plugin, we'll continue evolving the experience with new creative and productivity tools and capabilities, helping you do even more in ChatGPT and other popular AI chatbot platforms.

Acrobat brings powerful PDF workflows to WhatsApp
Acrobat brings PDF viewing, markup and editing into WhatsApp Web and Windows, letting users open, review and act on documents directly in chat without downloading files or switching tools. It also adds access to Acrobat’s advanced editing and AI Assistant features for faster document workflows.
Adobe and WhatsApp are bringing Acrobat-powered PDF experiences directly into WhatsApp Web and Windows, so you can open, review and act on your documents right in your chat without needing to download files or switch tools.
Many of WhatsApp's three billion users already use the platform to share files and move work forward. Adobe Acrobat has long delivered trusted PDF viewing, collaboration and AI-powered productivity in the places where people work with documents. Integrating Acrobat into WhatsApp extends that value, so you can stay in the flow whether you're reviewing an invoice, checking a contract, looking over a design or confirming details.
“Acrobat is built to power document workflows wherever they happen," said Abhigyan Modi, senior vice president, Creativity & Productivity Business. “Bringing PDF capabilities into WhatsApp Web and Windows extends that vision into one of the world’s most important communication platforms.”
Now available, globally
Acrobat-powered PDF experiences are now available globally on WhatsApp Web and Windows and include:
- Acrobat-powered PDF previews that open directly in your conversation
- Full-screen PDF viewing in chat, including for password-protected files
- Markup tools for you to highlight, strike through text and more
- Access to advanced Acrobat tools so you can edit and send the revised PDF right back to the chat
Open PDFs instantly without leaving your chat
Now, when someone shares a PDF in WhatsApp Web or Windows, you can open it instantly in the conversation. Scroll, zoom and read the full document without downloading the file or switching apps. Password-protected files stay secure, helping ensure only the intended recipients can access them.
With Acrobat powering the experience, your documents render exactly as intended, preserving layout and formatting. Documents shared within your chats remain end-to-end encrypted like all other personal messages, meaning that only those in the chat can read them.
Make lightweight markups right in the chat
Once you've reviewed the document, you can quickly add feedback right in the chat with PDF tools that allow you to draw, highlight, underline and strike through text. Circle a clause you want someone to double-check, cross out an outdated line or underline the details that matter most. You can make you markups without ever leaving WhatsApp, so you don't interrupt the chat.
Edit, share and unlock more with Acrobat
For more advanced needs, click “Edit in Acrobat” to access additional Acrobat tools so you can edit, organize, sign, apply password protection and more. With Acrobat AI Assistant, you can also summarize documents, ask questions and surface key insights in seconds. Advanced editing and AI Assistant capabilities are available with an Acrobat subscription. Once you’re done, just share the updated file back into the same WhatsApp conversation, so everyone stays aligned on the latest version.
This makes everyday workflows smoother. Whether you’re browsing a catalog and confirming selections, sending an invoice, reviewing contract terms, flagging changes or sharing edits, everything happens in one thread without breaking your flow. From first open to final version, everything stays connected.
Built for how you actually work
For many people around the world, WhatsApp is where professional and personal work gets done. Documents play a central role in that experience.
Whether you’re sharing invoices or catalogs with customers, reviewing contracts with collaborators, submitting assignments or forms or coordinating plans with shared itineraries, PDFs are part of an ongoing exchange that drives decisions.
On larger screens, this becomes even more powerful. The Acrobat integration in WhatsApp Web and Windows gives space to read, compare and respond in real time while staying connected to the conversation. With Acrobat powering the experience, everything looks as intended.
Keep work moving at the speed of chat
Work moves faster when your documents are right where you need them. By bringing Acrobat-powered PDF experiences into WhatsApp Web and Windows, you can go from receiving a document to acting on it instantly.
