You ought to be able to save a PDF wherever you wish. After you open it, hit alt and then arrow down to "save a copy, shift+control+S." Also there is an option to save as text. ----- Original Message ----- From: Becky Tsurumoto To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 4:39 PM Subject: RE: Adobe Reader vs. Acrobat G.W., Thanks for the below. When I downloaded Adobe Reader 9.3 from the website, I was informed that I already had Acrobat. I was asked which one I wanted to run. I chose Adobe Reader. Sure enough, when I later checked All Programs, there was Acrobat in my computer but not installed. I only need to download PDF files from the web and read them. So Adobe Reader should meet my needs. After I downloaded a PDF file, I couldn't find it. I finally discovered it in my History List. I was able to read the file. At another time, I wanted to read the file again. When I went back to my History List, JAWS wouldn't read the file, but instead, JAWS crashed. Simple question: After I download a PDF file, do I need to Save it in Internet Explorer under File menu?

Adobe® Acrobat® and Adobe Reader® software are separate products, though very complementary. Adobe Acrobat 9 helps you communicate and collaborate more easily and securely using PDF, the standard for electronic document exchange. Create and reliably share PDF documents and forms, help protect and control sensitive information, safeguard your work, and communicate exactly as you intended. Adobe Reader is the global standard for viewing PDF files. It is the only PDF viewer that can open and interact with all PDF documents. Use Adobe Reader to view, search, digitally sign, verify, print, and collaborate on PDF files. ----- Original Message ----- From: Becky Tsurumoto To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, April 13, 2010 2:54 PM Subject: Adobe Reader vs. Acrobat List, Can someone explain the difference between Adobe Reader and Acrobat Reader?
