Adobe Digital Editions
Use the free Adobe® Digital Editions software to read and organize eBooks and other publications.Adobe Digital
Editions is a separate web-based rich Internet application (RIA) that replaces the eBooks features in previous versions
of Acrobat.
When you install Adobe Digital Editions, your existing bookshelf items are automatically imported and available
within the new Adobe Digital Editions bookshelf experience. You can also manually import individual PDFs into your
Adobe Digital Editions bookshelf.
Note: When you open an eBook for the first time, the Adobe Digital Editions software is automatically installed on your
computer.

Viewing PDFs and viewing preferences
The initial view of the PDF depends on how its creator set the document properties. For example, a document may open
at a particular page or magnification.
Note: The Organizer and Organizer-related commands are not available in Acrobat X and later.
View PDFs in Read mode
When you’re reading a document, you can hide all the toolbars and task panes to maximize the viewing area on your
screen.
The basic reading controls, such as page navigation and zoom, appear in a semi-transparent floating toolbar near the
bottom of the window.
• To open Read mode, choose View > Read Mode, or click the Read Mode button
in the upper-right corner of the
toolbar.
• To restore the work area to its previous view, choose View > Read Mode again. You can also click the close button
in the floating toolbar.
Note: Read mode is the default viewing mode when you open a PDF in a web browser.
View PDFs in Full Screen mode
In Full Screen mode, only the document appears; the menu bar, toolbars, task panes, and window controls are hidden.
A PDF creator can set a PDF to open in Full Screen mode, or you can set the view yourself. Full Screen mode is often
used for presentations, sometimes with automatic page advancement and transitions.
