Google and Adobe partner to add app integration in Google Drive, Gemini

Google Drive will soon prompt users to switch to Adobe Acrobat while viewing PDFs, and Gemini will get a few new tricks powered by the company’s creative suite.

The pipeline from PDFs opened in Google Drive and Gmail to Adobe Acrobat is notoriously strained. That goes for any PDF viewer, but as soon as certain tools are necessary, a large number of users rely on Adobe’s products to edit and store documents.

Google announced plans to ease the process. According to a press release today, Google will be adding a “direct pathway” from Google Drive and Gmail in Adobe Acrobat. Acrobat will be suggested to users within the services, which will likely act as a quick transfer sort of feature. It doesn’t seem to indicate users will see any Adobe PDF editing tools within Google Drive. Google Drive has notoriously fallen short in this regard.

The partnership announcement also means Gemini will get access to some of Adobe’s creative tools. Further detail isn’t clear, but that includes Gemini, Gemini Enterprise, and Google AI Mode in Search. It sounds like the integration will allow users to edit or manage PDFs and other files straight from Google’s AI interfaces.

It’s not just PDFs and Google Drive; Adobe’s Photoshop gets a shout, too. Expected sometimes in the future, we may see more powerful image editing powered by Gemini within Adobe Photoshop, as opposed to the current models and limitations within. Gemini Nano Banana models are currently in use, but AI generation and editing could go further with a more focused effort.
