Adobe DRM on linux recently got a lot better: https://superuser.com/a/1775619 https://superuser.com/a/1775619

It's now possible to do this 100% within Linux, without running any emulators or Windows software, even though Adobe don't care about Linux support.
Knock is no longer maintained, however apparently it was just a wrapper around libgourou which is still maintained.
Installing libgourou (on Arch Linux it can be found in the AUR) allows you to download the ACSM file to a PDF or ePub:
# Use your username and password from https://account.adobe.com https://account.adobe.com
# This registers your device so only needs to be done once.
adept_activate -u user -p pass
# Download the ACSM file
acsmdownloader -f myfile.acsm
The downloaded file requires a password to open it, but if you need to open it in a normal viewing application, you can also remove the password:
adept_remove file.pdf
This process allows Linux users to access the same materials as their Windows and Mac friends, even without support from Adobe.

- globular-toast 3y agoI figured out how to remove Adobe DRM on Linux just to be sure I can. But, to be honest, I just circumvent the problem entirely these days.
