Adobe Acrobat Reader
Many of the downloadable files available from the ISRM site are Adobe Acrobat PDF (Portable Document Format) files. Users will require the Adobe Acrobat Reader software to view and print these documents.
Most new and recent PCs will have the Adobe Acrobat Reader software installed by default. If not, it is available at no cost from www.adobe.com.
Where you see a link on the ISRM site to a PDF you have two options.
Option one - click on the file. Depending on how your internet browser is configured, this will either attempt to open the PDF file in the browser window, or will display a standard windows dialog box offering the two further choices.
- Open: will attempt to open the Adobe Acrobat Reader software as a separate application and then open the PDF file.
- Save to disk: will prompt you to save the PDF file on a local or removable disk, ready to be opened later.
Option two - right click and save the PDF file on a local or removable disk, ready to be opened later on.
ISRM are unable to deal with queries related to the installation of the Adobe Acrobat Reader software, or its use. If appropriate, always ask the advice of your systems administrator before installing new software.
