To meet the needs of organizations with managed devices, the transition to the integrated Microsoft Edge PDF reader with the Adobe Acrobat PDF rendering engine will occur in phases. With Adobe Acrobat capabilities, Windows 10 and Windows 11 users can now use Adobe's PDF capabilities within the Microsoft Edge web browser without having to download or switch to a separate app, Microsoft says. Users interact with myriad PDF files on the web, mobile devices, and the desktop.
The vision of Microsoft and Adobe strategists: In the age of digital transformation, a web browser is where people collaborate, share information and get work done in the cloud. Microsoft Edge users with an existing Adobe Acrobat subscription can use the Acrobat extension within Edge at no additional cost. This can be done via a browser extension but also directly in Microsoft Edge. This will allow access to these features from anywhere, according to the announcement.
If additional digital document features are desired, such as the option to edit text and images, convert PDFs to other file formats, and combine files, an Acrobat subscription can be purchased. Added to this would be enhanced text selection and read aloud functionality, it says, and this remains free. The approach is said to offer improved performance, high security for PDF processing (an oxymoron), improved quality for more accurate colors and graphics, and better accessibility. They believe this will "improve the PDF experience and utility" by combining Microsoft Edge's built-in PDF reader with Adobe Acrobat's PDF engine.
Adobe Acrobat's PDF capabilities are to be made available for the Windows version of Microsoft Edge. Adobe and Microsoft announced in a news release that they are taking the next step to "streamline the future of digital work and life" (glorious word jingling).
