Adobe Digital Editions

Having downloaded and installed ADE 2.0, the wording of the instructions cannot be read as all the characters are boxes (as when the computer doesn't recognise a foreign symbol). How do I resolve this so that I can use the program?

Moving this discussion to the Adobe Digital Editions forum.

John which operating system are you using?  What are the language settings for your operating system?

Dear Jeff,

I use MS XP Home Edition 2002 SP3, and the language setting is English (United Kingdom).

ADE2.0 is not reliable on XP; even SP3.

Try replacing ADE2.0 with the older but more reliable v1.7.2.

Version 1.7.2, it is a little difficult to find, available on Adobe site for Windows and for Mac.
