Maybe you want to open PDF files using Adobe Reader without leaving Chrome. Fortunately, you can do so with the Acrobat Chrome extension. Not only can you easily enjoy PDFs in your favorite software while browsing the internet, but you can also open PDFs in the desktop app and gain access to features such as comments, forms, and PDF signatures. The Acrobat Reader Chrome extension doesn’t come with the Acrobat Reader desktop app. It is, however, easy to install the extension if you already use the original software on your computer: 1. Start Acrobat Reader. You’ll be prompted to install the Chrome extension if Reader is set as your default PDF viewer. If not, follow the steps above to set Adobe as your default PDF file reader and continue with the steps below. 2. Click on Continue or Next to install the extension. 3. Wait for the extension to install. The program will add it to Chrome automatically. 4. Launch Google Chrome. There will be a prompt informing you that there is a new extension. Click on Enable extension to start using it. The extension is now added, and you can use it to open PDF files with Acrobat Reader in Chrome. When you click on a PDF file in Chrome, there will be an “Adobe Acrobat” prompt in the top-right corner of the screen. Just select Open in Acrobat Reader, and you’re good to go. To disable the Acrobat Google Chrome extension, follow the steps below: 1. Right-click on the Adobe Acrobat extension and select Manage extensions. 2. Uncheck the box next to Enabled.
