How to Use the Adobe Reader to Print
Adobe Reader is a free application that lets you view PDFs or Portable Document Format files. You cannot make any edits to these PDF files unless you have special software. This makes it ideal to share these files with others so they can print them. PDF files contain all of the layout data, fonts, and other graphics so other computers that use Adobe Reader can see the same rendering regardless of configuration. Use Adobe Reader's print feature to see what the PDF file looks like on paper.
