- Installation
- -------------
- Install the pdf.sis file in the usual way. Check your manual if you
- are unsure how to install a program on your EPOC PDA.
- On the Series 7 it is possible that the installation programs hangs
- while displaying the message "Checking dependencies". If this happens
- to you, copy pdf.sis to your Series 7 and install it from there, by
- tapping twice on it. You might want to delete this file afterwards.

- help text (Ctrl+Shift+H) for an overview of the commands available.
