About The Acrobat Reader & Portable Document Format (PDF)

Get Acrobat Reader    Introduction to Adobe Acrobat and Portable Document Format (PDF)


Many documents on Trent's WebCT site are published using Adobe's® Portable Document Format (PDF) and may be displayed or printed exactly as when they were created -- with no font or display loss.  To view or print the document, you must download the free Acrobat® Reader from the Adobe web site. The Acrobat® Reader allows anyone to view, navigate, and print PDF documents.
 

To Install the Free Adobe Acrobat® Reader:

  • Read through the steps provided on Adobe's site and select the correct version of the plugin for your computer.
  • When the download is complete, click on the downloaded file to install the plugin and follow the directions on your screen.
  • When the setup is finished, the plugin will be installed.
You can then click any PDF file to view, navigate, or print it. For assistance in troubleshooting problems with Acrobat® Reader, please refer to Acrobat Customer Support and the Reader's online help. Information on PDF access for the visually impaired may be found on the Access at Adobe web site.

Printing from the Adobe Reader:

    To ensure that you print only the document that you are interested in, and not the entire learningSystem window, print with the Adobe Print Icon found in the top left corner of the Adobe Display Window and NOT THE BROWSER PRINT BUTTON, or "File", "Print".
