I need to covert an ACSM file to adobe how can I do that

I need to covert an ACSM file to a PDF file please help

[MichaelKazlow]

I am unsure, but I think the ACSM is an Adobe Editions file that probably contains protected material, hence unlikely to be converted into a pdf file.

Moved to Adobe Digital Editions

Unfortunately the answer you got from Michael is incorrect.

.ascm files are created when you start the downloading process from a

website - a publisher, distributor, author or library. .ascm files are not

ebooks. They are a pointer or 'tag file' that tells Adobe Digital Editions

(ADE) where to find the ebook text plus some other information ADE needs to

know in order to download the ebook to your computer.

Let me assume that you tried to download an ebook (in .pdf format?) and all

you got was this .ascm file. What happened was that the place from which

you downloaded that ebook didn't tell ADE on your computer to go and get

the ebook - it just dropped this 'tag file' on your computer. What you can

do now is to find that file and tell your computer to open it with ADE. If

you're using Windows, you can do this by finding the file using a utility

program, such as Windows Explorer (NOT Internet Explorer), and then

right-clicking on the fine name. The drop-down menu will give you a choice

'Open With', and you should move your cursor to that entry. A list of

programs will be displayed. Windows might be smart enough to know that

this format is opened with ADE and give you that choice. If it doesn't,

then pick 'Adobe Digital Editions' and it will go and find the ebook and

open it for you.
