Distributing Adobe Reader


You can freely distribute the Adobe Reader installation files on CD-ROM as long as you apply for a distribution request and comply with Adobe's licensing restrictions. Distributing the Reader is handy if you create catalogs, brochures, manuals, or a collection of PDF documents that you want to share with other people.

Adobe hosts a Web page containing information and licensing requirements related to the distribution of the Adobe Reader installer at www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/distribute.html?readstep (Figure 1.2). It includes links to permissions and standards, and a link to an online form for requesting permission to distribute the Adobe Reader installer. Click the link and fill out the form to begin your request. Once you receive authorization from Adobe Systems to distribute the Reader, you can then use the Includes Adobe Reader button on printed materials.

Figure 1.2. You'll find information regarding distribution of the free Adobe Reader program on Adobe's Web site.


If you receive a CD-ROM containing the Adobe Reader software, you may want to install the program from that CD. But make sure the installer is the most current version of the Adobe Reader software. You can check the version by visiting Adobe's Web site and the Reader.main page. When you double-click the installer icon, the version number is displayed prior to the installation.
