Once you have a compatible browser, you will need to download Acrobat Reader and install it. To download the file (if you haven't already), choose one of the following:
- Windows 3.1 version 3.0 (3.8MB)
- Windows 95 & Windows NT version 3.0 (3.9MB)
- Macintosh version 3.0 (6.4MB)
Download the "Install Acrobat Reader 3.0" application appropriate for your operating system. You may need to use the "Save Next Link As..." or "Save to Disk" functions of your Web browser to do this.
Quit your Web browser.
Double-click on the .exe file you downloaded.
Follow the instructions on your screen.
If there is a failure at any point during the installation of Acrobat Reader 3.0, the installer performs a complete uninstall. For this reason, it is important not to close the installer application by clicking its close box in the upper right corner of the background window after clicking the "Thank You" dialog box that appears at the end of the installation. If you wait for a second or two, the installer will automatically close the background windows after the installation is complete.
