Software Requirements
Does it matter which Internet browser I have on my computer?
You can use Internet Explorer, Safari, or Firefox when shopping at
the Saddleback Educational eStore. If
you experience difficulty completing a transaction,
you may need to upgrade your Internet browser.
What kind of software will I need?
All of the book files downloaded from our Educational eStore are downloaded as a PDF
file (if you have purchased software, it will be in a compressed archive format). PDF stands for
Portable Document Format. A PDF file is interchangeable
between operating systems, making it one of the easiest ways for
you to exchange files, regardless of the type of computer you
are using. PDF has quickly become the standard for publishing
documents on the Web. In order to view PDF files, your computer
needs a copy of Acrobat Reader installed on it. Acrobat
Reader is free from Adobe and can be downloaded
safely and installed quickly on your machine. This free program
will enable you to view and print any PDF file.
How do I install Adobe Acrobat on my computer?
Adobe Systems Inc. has all the information you need at their web
site. Depending on how old or new your computer is, you will
install either Version 6, Version 7, or Version 8. Version 8 is the newest
version, and has the most features. However, your computer must
meet the minimum requirements before you can use Version 8.
Acrobat Reader is free from Adobe. Download
Acrobat Reader or upgrade
your current version of Adobe Acrobat.
