I recommend Adobe's Classroom in a Book for Acrobat. After completing their
book for FrameMaker, I got the one for Acrobat. It's really nifty - comes with
exercises on a CD, and really walks you through using each of the features of
Acrobat.
I actually took a course on Acrobat as well, but didn't really get much out of
it. I found the book to be as good as the course.
