Flash Player needed | Acrobat, Reader XI

Why an alert about Flash Player?

You need Flash Player to view Flash content in PDFs, PDF Portfolios, and other features. Adobe Reader and Acrobat
no longer include Flash Player and features that require Flash now leverage the machine’s local copy of Flash. This new
strategy allows users and administrators to manage Flash Player updates independently of Acrobat product updates.

Note that the Flash Active X component is not enough to display this content. A full Flash player must be installed.
