      Adobe Acrobat Reader is a program which allows you to view/ read and print documents in PDF (Portable Document Format.) Sometimes you get a link to a document which your system is unable to read directly; in this case, you may need Acrobat Reader. Usually you are just directed to click on a link which will download the new version for you if you need it; no special skills or knowledge are needed to use it.
