Welcome to Adobe¬ Acrobat¬ Reader 2.0 for Macintosh
Adobe¬ Acrobat¬ software gives you instant access to documents in their original form, independent of computer platform. With the Acrobat Reader, you can view, navigate, print and present any Portable Document Format (PDF) file.
This Read Me file contains installation instructions and product information for the Acrobat Reader program. The On-line Guide (Acrobat¬ Reader Help) also provides essential information to help you begin using Acrobat Reader 2.0.
INSTALLING ACROBAT READER
===========================
Ñ To install Acrobat Reader 2.0 on your hard drive, double click on the file called "AcroRead.mac" and then follow the instructions on your screen.
Ñ Installation requires approximately 3 MB of free space on the active drive.
Ñ Acrobat Reader 2.0 requires ATM¬ version 3.6 or above.
Ñ ATM¬ LE (a special version of Adobe Type Manager 3.8) is installed with Acrobat Reader 2.0 for use by Acrobat only. Installation leaves older versions of ATM on your system for use with other applications.
Ñ If a version older than ATM¬ 3.6 is running on your system when you attempt to launch Acrobat Reader, you will see the message "Adobe Type Manager version 3.6 or newer must be installed. Acrobat Reader will now quit." If you are running on a 68020, 68030, or 68040 Macintosh with System 7 or greater, you may perform a partial upgrade to ATM by installing ATM LE in your System folder.
Ñ Locate the Fonts folder inside the Acrobat 2.0 folder. Drag the ATM¬ LE control panel to the System folder and restart your Macintosh.
Ñ ATM LE does not support QuickDraw GX, native Power Macintosh, Kanji, or 68000-based Macintosh. Please call 800-83-FONTS (800-833-6687) for information on the full upgrade to ATM.
Ñ ATM LE allocates approximately 576K of RAM from Multi-Finder memory when it is initialized by Acrobat Reader. If Virtual memory is on, ATM LE cannot use Multi-Finder memory, so an additional 576K memory must be allocated to Acrobat Reader.
