| The Adobe® Acrobat® Viewer lets you view Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files on all platforms that have a Java Virtual Machine (JVM) installed. If you already have Adobe Acrobat Reader, you won't need Acrobat Viewer. But if there is no available version of Acrobat Reader for your system, and you have a Java Virtual Machine installed, then Acrobat Viewer is for you. Written entirely in Java, Acrobat Viewer can be used as an application, an applet, or a JavaBean.
If you're an OEM, you can bundle Acrobat Viewer with your Java-related products, or integrate it into your custom Java solutions using the JavaBean interface. Once the finished product is available, you can license it for a fee.
For a limited time, you can download a beta (a prerelease demo of the application version) of Acrobat Viewer for free. Before you download
- The recommended Java Virtual Machine is Java Development Kit (JDK) version 1.1.8. Download JDK 1.1.8 for free. (On the site, it will be called Java Runtime Extension (JRE) version 1.1.)
- For Mac OS you need Mac OS Runtime for Java (MRJ) version 2.1.2. Download MRJ 2.1.2 for free.
Note: Adobe will not provide any technical support for Acrobat Viewer.
