6.2 Transferring ePUB and PDF files with DRM

copy protection onto the eBook Reader

This eBook Reader also supports content created with

Adobe® ADEPT copy protection.

6.2.1 Why DRM?

Many eBooks are encrypted with DRM protection. This

encryption is designed to protect the copyrights of authors

and publishers. As an eBook is bound to a certain Adobe® ID

while downloading it to a device or a computer, it cannot be

played on any number of other devices. Thus a distribution

of copyrighted content, e. g. on file sharing networks in the

Internet, can be prevented.

6.2.2 Adobe® ID

You need an Adobe® ID to register your device to your name

and to authorize copy-protected eBooks for your device. The

registration of an Adobe® ID is free and can be performed

easily under www.adobe.de or during the installation of

Adobe® Digital Editions.

You can download the software Adobe® Digital Editions for

free under www.adobe.com/products/digitaleditions. This is

used to download DRM copy-protected eBooks and to

transfer these eBooks to your Reader.
