What's the difference between Adobe Acrobat and Adobe 
Reader?
Adobe® Acrobat® and Adobe Reader are separate applications that let you open and view 
documents created in Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF). However, Adobe Acrobat 
lets you create PDF documents, add bookmarks and comments, change security settings, 
and edit PDF documents in other ways. Adobe Reader is free software that lets you open 
and view any PDF document.
There are two versions of Adobe Reader. The basic version contains a smaller set of 
features to allow for fast downloading, while the full version of Adobe Reader includes a 
broader version set, including the ability to search PDF files, play back embedded media 
clips, and support Digital Editions. Both versions of Adobe Reader are available from the 
Adobe web site (www.adobe.com) at no cost.
