WooHoo! Adobe Reader 9 is here!

Adobe Reader 9 is now freely available from Adobe.com. It is currently available in English, French, German, and Japanese for Windows (2000 SP4 and higher) or Mac OS X (10.4.11 and higher).

Get a copy, and then download these examples of documents created with Acrobat 9:

  • this PDF Portfolio, which contains some of the Acrobat 9 marketing materials and a Flash movie.
  • this Flash application which includes a flash controller, flash playbar, flash movie and captions which can be useful for accessibility requirements, or subtitles for localization.

and, let me know if you have some samples created with Acrobat 9 that I can showcase here.

The PDF samples are interesting, but I get a message that they cannot be opened in a browser. If I download first and then open in Reader 9, all is well. Should i have done something else? If not, should this be explained?

[[I've tested Firefox, Safari, and Internet Explorer on my PC - and both files opened fine in the browser - lori]]

Lori,

Clicking on the link you provides only gives me an option for downloading Acrobat 8.1.2. (Mac OS X Intel).

But Ali gave a link in his Adobe blog which led here which gives the Acro 9 option:

[[Steve -- Adobe.com has updated the technology so that it will now download Adobe Reader/Acrobat 9 using Max OSX]]

Adobe Reader 8 Updater does not show Version 9 as a new update.

I have posted an article, with examples, on using Flash in PDF for marketing.
