Well, in case you were wondering, the pdf was released by Adobe in 1993 as a way to encode documents in a universal format, so that it could be read on any computer configuration. Well, in case you don't have it installed already, you've either never heard of PDF's (portable document format) or you are such a power user that you opted for another pdf reader. What I'm trying to convey here is that Adobe Reader is such a common program that you might even have it installed without knowing. I'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean to upset Windows 8 users more than they already are.
