How to Bookmark Your Spot in Adobe Reader

Adobe Reader is the free PDF viewing application created and distributed by Adobe Systems. Adobe Reader provides the user with limited capabilities for manipulating a Portable Document Format (PDF) document. For example, Adobe Reader will allow you to bookmark your spot and save it as a link for later use, but you will not be able to edit text in a PDF using Adobe Reader. After you have created your bookmark, your bookmarks are linked in the left navigation panel. Simply click one to return to the bookmarked spot.
