About Acrobat Reader
All of the electronic standards are in Adobe's Portable Document Format (PDF).
You will need Acrobat to view standards purchased from the
eStandards Store.
Downloading Adobe Reader
- Go to Adobe Reader.
- Select the appropriate DOWNLOAD link. This will allow you to download the Acrobat
Reader installer application. This is a self-extracting file (.hqx, .bin, or .exe).
- Choose a directory to save the Acrobat
file and follow instructions from the Acrobat download page.
- Double click on the downloaded file to extract the application. Acrobat will begin installing itself onto your machine.
It will issue a series of questions and instructions regarding installing the Reader on your
computer. Follow the instructions carefully.
If you have any problems with the Acrobat Reader, please visit Adobe's extensive
customer support site.
More About ANSI standards in PDF
PDF is the preferred file format on the eStandards Store because it is the most
widely supported document format on the Web, and because of its reduced file size,
it shortens the download time. Some of the older documents are scanned at 300 dpi
and converted to PDF+Text. If the document you have is a scanned version,
it is because an original, electronic source file was not available.
We are also working closely with publishers to identify electronic
text which we may not have had access to during the production process.
