I am new to computers and have "adobie" two programs: Acrobat 5.0 and Reader 7.0.  What is the difference between them?

well my friend its Adobe first of all reader is to read PDF files as to Adobe acrobat is to creat PDF files.\n-the reader is free.\n-Acrobat you have to pay for it. \n\nand as to what a PDF is \n"Portable Document Format. An electronic document that must be read with the Adobe Acrobat computer program."\n\nA format from Adobe that enables a document to be distributed on different systems while preserving the layout (.pdf).

You need Adobe Acrobat. Adobe Reader comes standard in most computers, but Acrobat (the program that allows you to create and edit pdf's) is a program you must pay for.

you have to get the new version of Acrobat at adobe.com because your pjrogram might be missing some "actions" in the programing folders.

The full up version of adobe acrobat, not the free "reader" version

If you want something that will do everything you want, is easier to use than openoffice, is also free, and is only 5mb instead of 90mb to download, then try abiword:\nhttp://www.abiword.com/

Yes, but you need Acrobat Writer, not just Acrobat Reader, which is the free software most people have on their computers.

This program is the Adobe Acrobat speed launcher. Strictly speaking it is not required. \n\nCouple of suggestions:\n\n1) reboot your machine and see if the problem clears, it could be a temporary memory / address space error. If rebooting does not fix it ...\n2) Terminate the application, then run msconfig [ Start / Run / msconfig ], select the Startup tab, locate the reader_sl.exe and uncheck the box then press OK. (You may want to select the option not to be reminded again of this change.)  \n\nAlso, check the Start / Programs / Startup folder for this program (the display name may be different than reader_sl.exe). If you see it there, point at the file (shortcut actually), right-click it, and choose delete. (You could also cut it, then paste it into another folder temporarily if you think you might want to put it back. In either case you are deleting or moving the shortcut to the file, not the original file.)\n\nIf that STILL doesn't fix the problem, or it recurs, refer to these instructions at http://www.file.net/process/reader_sl.exe.html or search for a similar procedure. (I have no affiliation with this site. Caveat emptor.)

It would be helpful if you gave more details, such as how you got the file and what it is supposed to be.  In the absence of those details your answer is either "ABBYY Finereader 4.0 Sprint" or "CDspace CD Emulator".

Adobe Reader 7.0 is Adobe's latest free PDF file reader.  PDF is a standardized document that is intended to print the same way on any printer.   Visit http://www.adobe.com\n\nGood luck and Happy Computing!

Here you go.  It allows you to "test-drive the latest versions of Word, Excel, PowerPoint, and more."\nIt would probably be to your benefit to buy the software.  Go for the Student/Teachers version.  Its exactly the same and about $250 cheaper.

Get Adobe Acrobat Reader from this link:\nhttp://www.adobe.com/uk/products/acrobat/readstep2.html\nIf you're using Linux you need to install the mozilla-acrobat plugin as well. You'll find it either in the distribution repositories or download it from here: \nhttp://linuxappfinder.com/package/mozilla-acroread

one other good application is Solid Converter PDF.\n\nAnd editing PDF files is easy but you need Acrobat Pro or Acrobat 3D - Acrobat Reader is simply that, for viewing not editing

Sometimes due to no fault of your own, upgrades and downloads just don't work.  I had a similar problem a few months ago with Adobe.  I went to my add/remove progams in the contol panel and deleted the Adobe Reader.  I went back to their web site and downloaded the latest and greatest.  No problems at all. Just make sure you uncheck the toolbar option and the photoshop starter edition (unless you really, REALLY want them.)\n\nhttp://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html\n\nplrr

Try Foxit Reader, it's free and loads much faster the adobe reader.
