THE THIRD WAVE
The Third Wave: Network Publishing
Disruptive forces:
E-commerce, high-speed connections

tools they had used to produce arresting images on the printed page
could help them create equally compelling Web sites. Adobe Portable
Document Format (PDF) became a de facto standard for reliably
delivering paper-based documents over the Internet. And Adobe intro-
duced intuitive Web authoring tools such as Adobe GoLive software.
Today, as the Web evolves into a broadband, multichannel
communication vehicle, Adobe Systems is setting the stage for
publishing’s Third Wave—Network Publishing. Within this holistic
communication model, publishers will no longer rely solely on
desktop computers for the creation, management, and delivery
of cross-media content. Creative professionals of all kinds will
use integrated Adobe software tools and collaborative Web
environments to produce graphical content that can be viewed
from any Web-enabled wireless device. Book publishers will lay
out new releases for simultaneous publication in both paper and
eBook formats. And global organizations will save millions of
dollars by creating content once, delivering it rapidly to multiple
sites worldwide, and managing it from a central location.
