Microsoft and Adobe have partnered to integrate the Adobe Acrobat PDF rendering engine directly into the Edge browser, replacing the existing PDF engine.

Currently in beta testing, Edge's newest AI-powered feature makes PDF documents easier to understand.

Microsoft just announced that the built-in PDF experience in Edge will soon be powered by the Adobe Acrobat PDF engine.

You can allow or block Microsoft Edge from opening PDF files externally by changing some settings using Registry Editor or Group Policy Editor in Windows 11/10.

Microsoft Edge users on Windows will soon see Adobe branding in all PDFs, unless you subscribe to Adobe's advanced features.

Microsoft is improving Copilot integration in the Edge browser with AI-powered smart keywords. This will allow the AI to generate important keywords from the PDF and then help you analyze each topic.
