Google and Adobe are teaming up to make editing PDFs and photos a whole lot easier

Google and Adobe are working together to make some of your tasks a little easier. Whether you’re editing a PDF someone emailed you or working on an image in Photoshop, the two companies want to cut down on the number of apps you need to jump between to get things done.

For instance, say someone sends you a PDF over Gmail, and you need to make a few changes. Instead of downloading it and opening Acrobat separately, you’ll soon be able to access Adobe Acrobat directly from Gmail or Google Drive. A new Edit with option will appear when you preview a file, and Acrobat will also show up as a suggested app.

The partnership also extends to Gemini. Adobe is bringing Acrobat and more of its creative tools to Gemini and Gemini Enterprise, with some of these capabilities also making their way to AI Mode in Google Search. So, whether you’re working on a document or creating graphics, you’ll have more ways to access Adobe’s tools through Google’s services.

For businesses, Adobe is bringing its CX Enterprise Coworker agent to Gemini Enterprise. It’s designed to help teams work on documents, create graphics, and manage marketing campaigns from one place.

There’s also something interesting in the works for Photoshop. Adobe and Google DeepMind are exploring a new AI image model that could make image editing nearly instantaneous. The companies haven’t explained exactly how it’ll work, but the possibility of making changes to an image and seeing them appear almost immediately sounds pretty exciting.

Google says it’s announcing the expanded partnership with Adobe today at Adobe MAX. While there’s no word yet on when these features will be available, I’m especially interested to see how the Photoshop improvements turn out.
