ADOBE ACROBAT 3D VERSION 8 54 User Guide Adobe Digital Editions Acrobat 8 changes the way you open and manage eBooks. Now, you use the free Adobe® Digital Editions software to read and organize eBooks and other publications. Digital Editions is a separate web-based Rich Internet Application (RIA) that replaces the eBooks features in previous versions of Acrobat. When you install Digital Editions, your existing bookshelf items are automatically imported and available within the new Digital Editions bookshelf experience. You can also manually import individual PDFs into your Digital Editions bookshelf. Note: When you double-click the icon for an eBook, Acrobat automatically opens the Digital Editions download website, where you can start installing the software. To learn more about how to make the transition to this new solution for eBooks and for a link to the secure download website, go to the Adobe website. Non-English languages Asian language PDFs You can use Acrobat to view, search, and print PDF documents that contain Asian text (Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean). You can also use these languages when you fill in forms, add comments, and apply digital signatures. Almost all of the Acrobat features are supported for Traditional and Simplified Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text. In Windows, you must install the Asian language support files by using the custom installation and selecting the Asian Language Support options under Create Adobe PDF and View Adobe PDF. PDFMaker and the Adobe PDF printer automatically embed most Asian fonts in your file when creating PDF files. You can control whether Asian fonts are embedded. In Windows, you may be able to view and print files that contain Asian languages without having the necessary Asian language support installed on your system. If you try to open a PDF file for which language support is required, you are automatically prompted to install the required fonts. Cyrillic, Central European, and Eastern European language PDFs You can work with Adobe PDF files that contain Cyrillic text (including Bulgarian and Russian), Central European text, and Eastern European text (including Czech, Hungarian, and Polish) if the fonts are embedded in the PDF files. If the fonts are embedded, you can view and print the files on any system. Fonts do not need to be embedded to use the Search feature. Note: If you open a PDF file in which form fields or text boxes contain these languages but the fonts are not embedded and are not installed on your system, choosing Help > Check For Updates Now automatically prompts you to download and install the necessary fonts. Hebrew, Arabic, Thai, and Vietnamese language PDFs Acrobat supports the entry and display of Thai and Vietnamese text. In Windows only, Acrobat also supports Arabic and Hebrew. By default, Right-To-Left Language Options is enabled under Arabic and Hebrew regional settings (in Windows).
