CNET editors' review
Reviewed by: CNET Staff
The new version of this indispensable product doesn't introduce revolutionary changes, but it doesn't have to. As the low-end PDF reader, it simply keeps up with Acrobat Professional and Standard. This release adds the ability to play back embedded multimedia files in MP3, QuickTime, Macromedia Flash, Real, and Windows Media formats, as well as to submit Adobe PDF forms. It also replaces some of the icons in the default interface with optional, dockable toolbars. You might as well install this now before a Web site you visit prompts you to download it, because you'll need it.Publisher's description

Version: Adobe Reader 9.3
"Haven't been able to use it so can't say anything good."
Pros: Whats to like I can't open it to use it.
Cons: Reader 9.0 worked just fine. Downloaded reader 9.3 which erased 9.0 and 9.3 will not open. I have used a registry cleaner to remove registry errors have completely removed 9.3 and tried to download again. Get the same result.
Summary: Adobe does not offer technical support for its free reader.

Version: Adobe Reader 9.3
Pros: Simple, easy, free
Cons: Can't really edit anything, the download file is larger than most, takes a while to install
Summary: Your going to need a program for PDF's at sometime or another so just get it now. It's easy and simple and handy at times. In fact, many site have links to Adobe to get this product anyway, so you can trust it.
