Define a Word

SUMMARY: Quickly define a word found in a PDF document from within Adobe Reader 7.

Ever read a PDF document in Adobe Reader 7 and see a word that you'd like defined? Normally, you'd have to look the word up in a paper-based dictionary, type the word in Microsoft Word and get the synonyms, or look up the word on an Internet-based dictionary. Now, you can do the latter with ease.

To get the definition of a word, first make sure you are connected to the Internet. The "Select Text" toolbar button should be highlighted, if it is not already. Then, right-click on a word in question and choose "Lookup [word]" from the popup menu.
