Adobe Digital Editions is an EBOOK DRM system with an extensive range of application. It provides DRM for various ebooks. But for its complicated verification system, it is usually unable for us to open the books we bought. Adobe Digital Editions provides two verification mode: the first mode is binding directly with the current computer, another one is to use Adobe ID to verify. But no matter you use either of those two modes, once you reinstall Adobe Digital Editions or replace the computer, the downloaded ebooks are not able to be read again.

A couple of weeks ago I posted an article about how to remove DRM from Kindle ebooks in four easy steps. This time around I’ve got a tutorial on how to easily remove Adobe DRM from e Pub and PDF ebooks. All you have to do is install Adobe Digital Editions on your computer, along with a free ebook management program called Calibre, and a handy plugin or two for Calibre that automatically removes DRM from ebooks upon import. It’s so easy anyone can do it. One of the biggest problems with ebooks is DRM. It locks ebooks into certain platforms so that you can only read your purchased ebooks on specific apps and devices. As if that’s not bad enough a lot of the time ebooks that you spend good money on are horribly formatted by the author or publisher, and if the ebook has DRM there’s not much you can do about it. But if you go ahead and remove the DRM from your purchased ebooks you can read them on whichever devices or apps that you want. Plus you can easily control all aspects of layout using Calibre to modify the ebook’s CSS file. Another great thing about Calibre is you can use it to manage your entire ebook library from all ebookstores in one centralized location instead of having your ebook library fragmented across different platforms.
