PDF Files
Get Adobe's free Acrobat Reader
Some documents on MicroImages' Web site are
in Adobe's "Portable Document Format", or "PDF." PDF allows for detailed
document layout and supports high-quality printing, yet it still retains a
platform-independent digital file format. In order to view a PDF document, you
need a program such as
Adobe Acrobat or the free
Adobe Acrobat Reader, which allow you open, read, and print PDF
documents.

Viewing PDF Documents
With Adobe's free Acrobat® Reader 3.0 (or
newer) and the most recent version of Netscape Navigator®
or Microsoft® Internet Explorer, you can
view PDF files directly in your browser window. For the free Adobe Acrobat
Reader, simply download and install the version for your platform. Once you have
Acrobat Reader installed on your computer, clicking on links to PDF files
automatically launches the Reader plug-in and you can view, zoom, navigate,
and print the PDF document directly in your browser window.
Page-at-a-time viewing
MicroImages' Web server is configured to allow page-at-a-time viewing of PDF
documents. With page-at-a-time viewing, you don't have to wait for an entire
document to download before you begin viewing and navigating the document.
Here's what you need to have to view PDF documents a page a time:
- The most recent version of Microsoft
Internet Explorer or Netscape Navigator
- A PDF file viewer--we recommend the free
Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 or newer.
What if I just want to download the file?
By default, during a page-at-a-time download, Adobe Acrobat Reader displays
the first page in your browser window, and then continues to download the rest
of the PDF file in the background. However, the PDF file is not saved to your
disk unless you explicitly save the file. You may want to save PDF files to
your local hard drive so you can view them offline. To do this, use your
browser's "Save As" feature (usually located under the "File" in the menu
bar).
