KHSAA Help with Adobe Acrobat®

Why Adobe?
The Adobe Acrobat® Reader allows the Association to put documents up for web access that will appear exactly as they do on paper. In this way, forms and other documents can be viewed and printed with the accuracy they need rather than fitting onto a particular printer.

What if I click on a document labeled PDF and nothing happens?
First of all, be patient.  PDF files are by nature, graphic intensive (although they are very small), and they may take a little while to load, especially in a slower machine.   If the browser tells you it doesn't know how to handle the file, or nothing happens after an extended period of time, you may need to get a new version of the reader.

What if I don't have Acrobat Reader® or need to download it?
First of all, it is free. So don't worry about charges for the reader. It is an add-in for your browser that allows you to read these types of files.  If you need the file, you can download the reader by clicking on THESE WORDS which will automatically allow you to read the documents.
Some browsers will automatically install the program once downloaded.  Others will require you to install the downloaded file. If installation is required, point to the directory into which you saved the downloaded file by using Windows Explorer or file manager. Then double click on the file name and the installation will happen automatically.  You will then need to reload Explorer / Navigator to make sure the add-in is functioning.

What if I have trouble with the install?
Adobe has a help site available.  Just click on THESE WORDS to access the help.
