Sandra,

Adobe Reader is a free product to allow you to read PDFs. Acrobat, on the other hand, is a commercial product which also allows you to create PDFs.

Regards,
Steve

    Greetings,

    With the latest Adobe Reader, it is imperative that you disable
    its protected mode options as this will render all PDFs
    inaccessible in Windows XP. You can find the relevant options by
    opening Adobe's preferences dialog with Control-K, going to the
    "security enhanced" tree view item, and unchecking the protected
    mode check boxes. Once you restart Adobe Reader, you should be
    able to read your documents again-- assuming that they were
    authored correctly.

    Regards,
    Steve

            Hi all,

            My husband just had to practically rebuild my computer
            after it got the fbi virus! It was terrible! I had to get
            a new hard drive. Fortunately all of my files were saved.
            But, all of my special programs were gone. Now I can't
            read anything in pdf or Adobi. My husband says that I
            don't need any special Adobi program, because
            accessibility is built into the Adobi reader. I don't
            think that is true. If I do need a certain Adobi program,
            what do I need that will both work for the blind and work
            well with Window Eyes? Thanks.

            Paulette
