Adobe Systems Inc. is making its enterprise-friendly document management tools more easily accessible for Microsoft Corp. customers.

This expanded interoperability is the result of new integrations that the company debuted early this morning. Born from a cloud partnership that Adobe struck with Microsoft last September, the integrations focus primarily on two products: its Sign e-signature service and the Acrobat DC suite of PDF editing tools.

Enterprise workers now use the suite to create documents directly within Office 365 applications. In the online versions of Word, Excel and PowerPoint, new shortcuts provide the ability to save a document as a PDF directly via the native ribbon toolbar. This capability is also accessible in OneDrive and SharePoint, along with a merge option unique to the two latter two services that lets users combine multiple files into a single PDF. 

Workers can add signatures to any business document they create by using Adobe’s Sign. The service, which already works with Office 365, is becoming available in Microsoft’s Dynamics 365 suite of enterprise resource planning and customer relationship management applications as well.

The integration checks a lot of boxes. To start, users can now pull client information from LinkedIn’s Sales Navigator tool directly into a contract to save time and avoid potential data entry errors. Moreover, there’s a new “privacy administrator” account tier in Sign that’s specifically designed for workers tasked with upholding a company’s regulatory compliance. It provides self-service tools for handling privacy requests related to Europe’s General Data Protection Regulation.

Adobe and Microsoft’s efforts to bring their products closer together seems to be resonating well in the market. According to today’s announcement, adoption of Sign has spread to the “majority” of Fortune 100 companies, with more than 8 million signature translation processed in the past year alone.

Microsoft’s Azure is part of the two tech giants’ integration effort, too. Adobe has agreed to migrate the infrastructure that supports Sign to the cloud platform as part of the partnership and expects the new deployment to go live in the United States within a few weeks. As for the new product integrations, they’re generally available today.
