PDF compatible program
Adobe Reader DC is a cloud-based program that allows users to view, print and sign PDF files. It also allows them to share, annotate, and even share them. You can view and interact with different forms and multimedia embedded within the portable document format file. All of these actions can be performed from a computer, or a mobile phone. Adobe Reader DC for Windows is compatible with Windows 2008 and newer. Adobe Reader can be downloaded to mac OS X, Android and iOS devices to view files stored in Adobe Cloud. These capabilities combine to make it possible for you to stay productive from anywhere and at any time.
FeaturesAdobe Reader offers a wide range of tools that can be used to complete office tasks. The Annotating tool is the most popular feature in PDF programs. Annotations are comments that you can add to a document. Adobe Reader allows you to highlight, strikethrough or draw, as well as write, or paste, your comments onto the file. Notes can be added to a page to help others understand what is needed.
The Fill & Sign tool is another notable feature of the program. It recognizes fillable fields that you can either type or draw. This tool can also be used to locate fields with drop-down menus. It is important to remember the PDF creator is responsible for optimizing the file. If the file does not contain optimized fields, you can still use the Fill & Sign tool to add your signature, information, or answers. Non-optimized fields can cause text or drawings to appear misaligned.
Adobe users who are blind, low vision, or have mobility impairments can still use PDF reader to interact and view documents and forms. The program's Accessibility section allows you to easily modify or set your preferences using an easy-to-use wizard. It can be used to enable large-type display and high-contrast mode. Text-to-voice can also be activated, which allows the program read the document aloud.
SecurityHackers and Internet sleuths can insert malicious code into a PDF file. Adobe Reader has a Protected Mode feature that combats this problem. It mimics end-user operating systems to send malware and threats to isolated environments. All your intellectual property and sensitive data are safe from being accessed or extracted by unauthorised individuals, as the virus is far away from your device.
PDF Reader does not allow you to add passwords to your files. Adobe Acrobat software has this feature. Its security settings allow users to specify who can access, edit, or print the document. This would have been a great way to protect the document's confidentiality.
Productivity and office tool of vital importanceAdobe Reader DC provides all the tools necessary to read and interact with PDF files. It is suitable for administrators, students, employees of agencies, and other office workers. Adobe Reader DC is also a great tool for the visually impaired. Its settings feature can help them see clearly and better understand the document. Adobe Reader could be more secure by setting passwords to protect your files, but the protected mode is sufficient to prevent hackers from accessing your file and your computer.
