store, or eBooks from the Kobo Store that are protected by
Digital Rights Management (DRM) to your Kobo eReader.
DRM prevents the unauthorized copying or redistribution of
eBooks to protect the rights of authors and publishers. If
you downloaded a book protected by DRM, you’ll get a
license in the form of an .acsm le with your book. You'll
then use ADE to add the DRM-protected content to your
eReader.
To get started with ADE:
• Install Adobe Digital Editions.
• Get an Adobe ID.
• Authorize your computer and eReader with ADE.
You'll need to use ADE when you want to:
• Read an eBook that you've borrowed from the
library.
• Read a protected PDF le you've purchased from the
Kobo bookstore.
When you borrow an eBook from your library, your library
should be able to provide you with instructions on how to
download your book's .acsm le.
Some books in the Kobo bookstore may be in PDF format
which requires ADE to load the PDF les onto your eReader.
