Can I read .acsm files?
Forgive me for my complete and utter obliviousness, but I have literally never read a single ebook in my life.
I downloaded an .acsm file on my PC. I downloaded calibre after some searching on the web. Now I can't seem to open the file. Am I doing something wrong? I prefer to support open source software, so I want to avoid proprietary solutions unless I absolutely have to. |

The only two Windows apps I know of that handle them (as in 'let you download the epub file the acsm file pertains to') are Adobe Digital Editions and Bluefire Reader Both are free, but neither is open source. |

You want to create an account at https://adobeid-na1.services.adobe.c...low_type=login and then go to http://www.adobe.com/support/digital...downloads.html to download and install Adobe Digital Edition 2.0.1.
Use the Adobe credentials you just created to authorize Adobe Digital Editions. The .acsm file will be used with Adobe Digital Editions to download the ePub eBook. You can then then read your eBook with Adobe Digital Edition on your computer. |
