BCL Jade - Version 5.0 Jade 5.0 is a plug-in for Adobe Acrobat 5.0 that allows you to accurately extract data from Adobe PDF files that would otherwise be unobtainable. Jade allows text, tabular data, and graphics contained in PDF files to be edited and manipulated in other Windows applications. Jade requires that you have a full version of Adobe Acrobat 5.x installed. It will not work with the free Acrobat Reader.
