So far as I can tell, the Jetbook does not supports Secure Adobe ebooks. Some sellers call these Secure Adobe PDFs, others say Secure Adobe Reader 7.0 ebooks, and Books on Board calls these Secure Adobe Digital Editions. Whatever they are called, they are PDFs but the "Secure" part is encryption that Adobe has added to prevent you from reading them except with the appropriate software. This software is only available from Adobe, and only some Adobe software works. Windows Adobe Reader version 7.0 was the last version of Adobe Reader to handle these files, and the only current software to do so is Adobe Digital Editions.
The bottom line is that you can't read them on the Jetbook, and it is going to be challenging to get any "Secure" ebook to work on the Jetbook.
You can read your Secure Adobe ebook on a Windows or Mac PC using Adobe Digital Editions, but you may want to return it instead.
BoB confirms that the Jetbook can't read their ebooks, see
format help.
