Adobe is changing the world through digital experiences. We help our customers create, deliver and optimize content and applications. Adobe Acrobat was the first software to support Adobe Systems' Portable Document Format (PDF). It is a family of software, some commercial and some free of charge. Adobe Reader (formerly called Acrobat Reader) is available as a no-charge download from Adobe's web site, and allows the viewing and printing of PDF files.
Through online script
See the System Information tool for a quick and easy way to determine your version of Adobe Reader and if your browser supports reading PDF files.
NoteThis script only supports determining the version of Adobe Reader if you have 7.7 or higher installed. If you're using an alternative PDF reader, it detects PDF support, but will not show the name or version of the PDF reader you're using.
Determining version of Adobe Reader in Windows?

- In Programs, if Adobe Acrobat is installed, you see an Adobe Acrobat x icon, where 'x' is the version of Adobe Acrobat. For example, 'Adobe Acrobat 8' may be seen if a variant of 8 is installed. Click this icon to open the program.
