Viewing Acrobat PDF files
To view an Adobe Acrobat PDF file you will need the Acrobat Reader from Adobe which is available for free from Adobe's website.
 
Here we will cover the different PDF viewing options within the AIM Manual.
 A. Viewing the entire AIM Manual
 B. Viewing AIM Manual Pages from the table of contents
 C. Viewing AIM Manual Pages from individual web pages
 
TOP OF PAGE A. Viewing the entire AIM Manual
To view the entire AIM Manual in PDF form, you must first click on the "Download AIM Manual" tab as shown in FIG. 1.
 
Once the download page is open you will see two choices, as shown in FIG. 2. The first choice is instructions on how to SAVE the PDF file. The second choice displays instructions on how to view the PDF file. Viewing a PDF is very simple, all you have to do is click on the link with the left mouse button (On a Mac just click on it with the mouse button), as you would any other link on the web. The Acrobat reader will automatically open and display the PDF as soon as it has downloaded.
