How
to View PDF Files
The helper application Adobe Acrobat
Reader is required to view PDF files. If Acrobat is properly installed on
your computer, you can click on the link to a PDF document and it will
load in the Adobe Acrobat window. If this does not happen, you need to
install the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software. This software will allow
you to view PDF files on any website and it takes just 3 steps to get the
Reader:
1) download it, 2) install it, and 3) set it up.
Download Adobe Acrobat
Reader
You'll need about 5-10 megabytes of hard disk space depending on your
operating system.
Get the free
download. Note the file name that is downloading and what
directory it is downloading into.
Install Acrobat on your
computer
After downloading the Acrobat file, go to your file manager, locate the
EXE file that was downloaded, and run it (double click it). This will
install the reader on your system.
Set up Acrobat to work with
your browser.
Browser menus vary slightly with different versions. To set up Acrobat
in Netscape 3.0, for instance:
- Go to the Options menu
- Choose General Preferences
- Choose Helpers
- Scroll through the Helpers list until you see
Extension type PDF, and select it
- Under Action, select Launch the Application
- Browse to find the path where Acrobat's
installed EXE file is located and press Open
- Choose OK to close the window
Now you can view and print the PDF
version of the flyer
