 ... available in a number of languages and platforms and the basic version is free. To actually create and edit pdf files you will have to buy a version of the product/license in order to do so. There are three current options on their website which range from the basics of just creating and distributing pdf files (Acrobat Standard) to more advanced versions (Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Pro Extended). This is what is required if you want to produce and distribute pdf files legally for example as downloads on a website. This is not ch...more

Premium Review A very useful little utility (357 words)

This is one of the most used programmes in the world. It exists in two incarntaions. The reader which merely allows you to open files encrypted in .pdf form and read them and then the actual acrobat program which enables you to encrypt your own files in this format and is commercial and reasonably expensive. The sort of files that are encrypted in .pdf are almost always text files or research and examination papers on the nest and fairly often electronic books also exist in this form. The reason for the use of the .pdf format is that it enables written files (sometimes containing images) to appear the same on any computer that they are opened on. The ...  Read the complete review

You can download this application from the Internet in a matter of minutes. It is a free and extremely useful application, especially if you are doing research on the Internet, as many official sites now provide their files for public viewing in PDF format. When using this application for the first time it can appear to be a little moody. But persevere as it only takes a couple of uses to get you familiar with its little foibles. One of the most useful tricks when using Acrobat Reader is to click on the little tag in the top right-hand corner where you will find the ‘properties’ facility. One click on one of these selections ...  Read the complete review

This is the most used software of mine till now, although I have substitude it with another free software last month. Adobe Acrobat Reader is a free software that alow you to open pdf file, which is the most dominant document on the internet. As the offical reader of pdf file, Adobe Acrobat Reader support pdf well (sure it is!). Compare to other reader software, acrobat has a more system-built functions. For the basic reading, you can make notes and comments on the document, if it is not secured by someone. And you can create you own secured pdf document if you just want others to read. I sometimes use it to fill some pdf form when I wasa apply for ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Adobe Acrobat Reader: Essential piece of software (302 words)

Rating:

Due to the wide variety of Word processors available such as Microsoft Word, Lotus 123 or Corel Wordperfect, it is not always possible to read a document which was written on a different computer. Imagine compiling a document in Microsoft Word and passing it to a friend on a floppy disk only to find that they are using Lotus Smartsuite or some other office program. Of course you could always download a free copy of Word reader from the Microsoft site, but how many such programs would you require? There are many instances in which the average computer user would need to read documents from other sources, the most common being instruction manuals and guides supplied on ...  Read the complete review
