FedEx Kinko's partners with Adobe
FedEx Kinko’s and Adobe Systems Inc. Wednesday announced a partnership to extend the reach of Kinko’s online applications.
With connections to Adobe’s Reader and Acrobat software, Kinko’s Print Online customers will be able to send documents for printing to any Kinko’s store in the country.
“By enabling FedEx Kinko’s Print Online functionality with Adobe Reader and Acrobat, people can simply and conveniently access FedEx Kinko’s printing services, which provides more options for working with PDF files — including professional printing and shipping via FedEx, right from the desktop,” said John Brennan, senior vice president of the Platform Business Unit at Adobe.
The free Adobe Reader 8.1 has a “Send to FedEx Kinko’s” option in the file menu as well as a button on the main toolbar, represented by the Kinko’s icon. Later this month, Acrobat 8.1 will also feature the FedEx Kinko’s functionality as an option in the file menu.
With Kinko’s Print Online, customers may upload and combine multiple files, customize jobs with tabs and inserts, preview orders, track job status, choose to ship their orders or pick up at a local center, and pay online.
A variety of delivery options are available, including FedEx Express and FedEx Ground services. Users may store contact and billing information, reprint previous orders, review order history, receive discounts and special offers, set up preferences for a favorite center location and default recipient information.
