The Adobe Reader

Any Web sites that use PDF files usually include an icon Get Adobe Reader along with the PDF files. If you use Windows, Mac OS 7.5.3, Mac OS X, Linux, HP-UX,Solaris, AIX, OS / 2, , Palm OS, Symbian OS or Pocket PC, Adobe there is always an PDF reader for you (Different platforms frequently provide different versions and have different capabilities, but they still provide basic PDF reading functionality.)

You can obtain latest reader int http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html Choose a language, platform, and the connection speed. Each version has slightly different installation instructions. Adobe Reader installer will be integrated into your web browser to allow online PDF reading.

However new versions are not always better. If you want an older version of Acrobat Reader, visit http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/reader_archive.html

After the Reader is installed, whenever you click on the website that links to PDF files, the Reader would run to allows you to view PDF files, most often within the browser window itself.

The Reader allows you to zoom, adjust view options, select and copy a box of text, but unlike the commercial version of Acrobat Reader, it does not provide a way to create or edit PDF documents.

To ensure that you get the best reading experience always set the layout defaults to a single default page and zoom to the top Fit.
