About Adobe Digital Editions

Jul 18, 2008 @ 09:44 am by admin

Adobe® Digital Editions is a free, Rich Internet application (RIA) specifically designed for digital reading. Digital Editions enables readers to acquire, manage and read e-books and other digital publications in a simplified and engaging way.

Unlike Adobe Reader, Adobe Digital Editions is a lightweight application (4MB download on Windows). Its user-friendly interface allows readers to organize e-books (Adobe PDF and Adobe EPUB) on bookshelves, view bookmarks, annotations and a table of contents, and increase and decrease text size. You can also move DRM-pretected e-books to mobile devices including the Sony® Reader Digital Book.
