If you currently own a Macintosh computer running OSX, the operating system fortunately includes a lite PDF reading application that allows you to view PDF files without Acrobat Reader.
Apple with its latest OS, Mac OS X integrates PDF everywhere. Icons and other elements of applications are PDF, rendering the system is closely linked to the data model used by a PDF file, and any application that can print can also generate PDF files.
Preview application is installed on the Macintosh at Macintosh HD:Applications:Preview. It may read a variety of graphic formats, including JPEG, BMP, TIFF and GIF, as well as (of course) PDF. You can open PDF files in Preview by selecting File>Open. . . , or by dragging the icons to the Preview application, or (if Acrobat is not installed) by double-clicking.
The interface is a lot simpler than the Acrobat Reader software in Windows, even so the options are user-friendly. Preview may also display thumbnails of pages, which is nice for quick navigation. Preview also supports the creation of PDF integrated into Mac OS X.
Also, File >Export menu in Preview allows you to save PDF files or graphics that you need into various PDF formats. If you need to convert them to JPEG format to a PDF file, a PDF file or a TIFF, it is an handy option. (It should also be noted that the screen shots taken in Mac OS X's Command-Shift-3 or Command-Shift-4 options are saved to the desktop as a PDF. These PDF files containing bitmaps, just as if they were created in TIFF format and exported into PDF files through Preview.)

PDF files look very much like the original printed pages in books. Since it is very easy to convert printed material into PDF files, they are often used by organizations which have a lot of existing printed material they want to make available on the Internet. Thanks a lot.
