Clickinng on this will download an ACSM file. This in turn when opened on your PC by ADE will download either the ePub or PDF format of the book.
With ADE open and your Kobo attached to the PC you should be able to "drag" the book to the Kobo (again, within ADE). |
Additional to what Peter says, the first time you connect your Kobo to ADE, it will want to authorize your ereader. This is necessary to allow reading Adobe ADEPT DRM ebooks in either PDF or epub format.
Once authorized, leave the Kobo connected to your computer and copy the .adobe-digital-editions folder from there to your computer. If you ever have to do a factory reset, you can copy that folder back and save yourself having to re-authorize your Kobo. Actually, what you need is a hidden file called activation.xml inside that folder.
Once your Kobo is authorized, if you right click on a book in the ADE library, you should see a "copy to computer/device" item, hover on that and then click on Koboereader to transfer the book.
If possible, check to see if there is an epub version available. While your Kobo can display a .pdf file, the reading experience is far better with an .epub file.
