Over the past two decades, the Portable Document Format (PDF), developed by Adobe Systems, has become the industry standard for clean and secure documents. There are many PDF-viewing applications available across the various app markets. However, you can’t go wrong with Adobe’s sleek-looking and versatile PDF reader, Adobe Reader X.

Adobe Reader X offers two PDF-viewing options. The standard zoom-and-scan option, where users can manipulate the document by using their fingers to zoom in and out; and reflow, which presents the text in a single column and fits in nicely into the available document pane. This interface, which presents the text in a linear format, makes reading the PDF text exponentially simpler. Reflow is not readily available in other non-Adobe PDF readers.

Adobe Reader X also offers users options to view PDF portfolios, password protected PDFs, and annotations. Users can also bookmark sections of a PDF and offers an easy-to-use search interface where users can find specific content within a PDF. Users can also provide feedback through the use of sticky notes or text-based options such as the ability to strikethrough, highlight, and underline the text of the document.

For internet functionality, Adobe Reader X offers integration with the user’s default browser and Email client allowing for quick access to links and correspondence while viewing a PDF file.

Adobe Reader X offers all the bells and whistles that you should be looking for when searching the app stores for a PDF viewer. Available in 16 languages and completely free to use, the Adobe Reader X app offers a complete solution to your mobile PDF-viewing needs. It’s always nice when it doesn’t take a third party to get things right..
