This hybrid CD-ROM contains Acrobat Reader 3.0 installers (with and without Acrobat Search) for Macintosh, Windows, and Unix. Here are the installation instructions for each platform:
Windows -- Run the SETUP.EXE program in the 16BIT (for Windows 3.x systems) or 32BIT
(for Windows 95 and NT systems) folder for the desired configuration:
ACROREAD / WIN
|___ READER Acrobat Reader
| |___ 16BIT Windows 3.x
| |___ 32BIT Windows 95 and NT
| |___ QUICKTIM QuickTime 2.12 Installers
|
|___ RDR_SRCH Acrobat Reader + Search
|___ 16BIT Windows 3.x
|___ 32BIT Windows 95 and NT
|___ QUICKTIM QuickTime 2.12 Installers
For example, the Acrobat Reader + Search installer for Windows 95 is:
ACROREAD / WIN / RDR_SRCH / 32BIT / SETUP.EXE
QuickTime installation is only required if you are viewing PDF files with linked QuickTime
movies or sounds. See the README.WRI file in the QUICKTIM folder for installation details.
Macintosh -- Run the "Install Acrobat Reader 3.0" program in the "Reader" folder of the
desired configuration:
ACROREAD / MAC
|___ Reader Acrobat Reader
| |___ Reader Reader Installer

| |___ QuickTime QuickTime 2.5 Installer
|
|___ Reader+Search Acrobat Reader + Search
|___ Reader Reader + Search Installer
|___ OLE OLE Plug-in Installer

QuickTime installation is only required if you are viewing PDF files with linked QuickTime
movies or sounds. Most likely, your Macintosh system already has QuickTime 2.0 or later
installed, which is required to play back QuickTime movies and sounds added to Portable
Document Format (PDF) files.
Installation of the OLE plug-in is only required if you need to view PDF documents
embedded as OLE objects in another application, such as Lotus Notes.

If you do so, you must include the following attribution line: "Some portions copyrighted to and reprinted with permission from Adobe Systems Incorporated."
Customizing the Acrobat Reader Installers
====================================
You may customize the Acrobat Reader installers to install additional files such as plug-ins and help files. You cannot change the components that are built into the Acrobat Reader installer and its archives.
Windows -- The Acrobat Reader installers for Windows have the ability to copy files that are external to the installer application and archives. To trigger the blind-copy mechanism, a file named ABCPY.INI (Adobe Blind CoPY initialization file) must exist in the same folder as the installer program (SETUP.EXE) for Acrobat Reader. The ABCPY.INI file specifies the source and destination locations for each file that is copied. Details for modifying this file can be found in ABCPYDOC.INI which is in the same folder as the installer (SETUP.EXE) for Acrobat Reader. An actual example of using ABCPY.INI can be found in the Acrobat Reader + Search installer on this CD-ROM.
Macintosh -- The Acrobat Reader installers for Macintosh have the ability to copy files that are external to the installer application and archives. This is done by placing them in specially named folders, within the same folder as the installer application. In this way, files can be automatically copied to the Adobe Acrobat 3.0 folder on the destination hard drive. Standard folder names are:
Plug-Ins
Optional Plug-Ins
Help
1. Create a folder named (one of the choices above, exactly) at the same level as the installer application in the "Reader" folder.
2. Put the appropriate files or folders (yes, it's recursive) into the folder you've created. Please put only the same type of files as the folder name. For example, plug-ins in the Plug-Ins folder, PDF files in the Help folder, etc.
Note: The Installer checks to see if there is enough room on the target disk before installing the files in these external folders, but the copy will fail silently if there isn't enough room on the target disk. Also, the amount of space taken up by the additional files is --not-- included in the required space number in the Easy Install portion of the Installer.
"Includes Adobe Acrobat" Logo
===========================
A special "Includes Adobe Acrobat" logo is available from Adobe for use when distributing Acrobat Reader. See http://www.adobe.com/acrobat/acrodist.html for more details.
