1. Downloading the Special Report

You should have been taken immediately to a download page where you could download your Special Report.

If not, here is the link to download the book.

Make sure you save the files (by following the instructions on the download page) to your hard drive in a place you can find them before you do anything else.

You should save the file to your “desktop” so you can find it easily and quickly once you have finished downloading.

Unless you change the name of the Special Report file you downloaded, it is named 18 Essential Best Practice Special Report.pdf — this is important to know if you have a problem finding the file later.

2. Opening the Special Report

Once you have downloaded the Special Report to your computer’s desktop (or whatever folder you saved it in) then simply double click the file and it should open in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

If it does not open automatically in Adobe Acrobat Reader –then open Adobe Acrobat Reader by clicking “Start” then “Programs” then “Adobe Acrobat” then “Acrobat Reader”

Once you open the Adobe Acrobat Reader program click “File” “Open” then (if you save the file to your desktop) go to your desktop and open the file named “18 Essential Best Practice Special Report.pdf.”

This should open the Special Report file in your Adobe Acrobat Reader.

3. Downloading & Using Adobe Acrobat Reader

If you need Adobe Acrobat Reader (or if you need to upgrade) you can download the FREE Reader software / upgrade by going to

http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html

You can get the latest version of Adobe Acrobat Reader FREE

Adobe Acrobat Reader comes with an extensive “Help” file – if you have questions about how to operate the program — please open the Adobe Acrobat Reader program, click “Help” and make the appropriate selection.

4. Printing the ebook

Open Adobe Acrobat Reader by clicking “Start” then “Programs” then “Adobe Acrobat” then “Acrobat Reader.”

Once you open the Adobe Acrobat Reader program click “File” then “Open” then (if you save the file to your desktop) go to your desktop and open the file named “18 Essential Best Practice Special Report.pdf.”

Then click “File” then “Print.”

*** Frequent Questions / Common Issues ***

5. I downloaded a copy of the ebook but now I can’t find it on my computer – what do I do?

When you originally downloaded the files you should have saved the Special Report files to your “desktop.”

If you did not, and if you cannot find them, the easiest thing to do is a search for them.

Click the Windows “Start” button then click “Search” then click “For Files or Folders”.

Where it says “Search for files or folders named:” type in “18 Essential Best Practice Special Report.pdf“.

Make sure it says “Look in: ‘Local Hard Drives'” on the pull down menu right below.

Click “Search Now.”

Double click the file in the search results and the file should open in Adobe Acrobat Reader.

If it does not open automatically — make a note of where the file is located — then follow the instructions in #2 above.

6. Is there a “hard Copy” available?

There is no “Hard Copy” available at this time.

7. The links in the Special Report won’t work.

If you click the “web” links in the Special Report (blue underlined links) and they don’t take you to a web page — Make sure your computer is online and connected to the web.

If you get an error that says something to the effect that no web browser is configured to work with Adobe Acrobat Reader then try this:

In Adobe Acrobat Reader go to “File” then “Preferences” then “Web Link” and choose your browser in the WWW Browser Application.

You will need to find the .exe file for the browser by clicking the “browse” button.

Your browser .exe file (usually either FireFox or Internet Explorer) can sometimes be found in your “Program Files” folder.

Any more tech support on this issue should come from Adobe or your computer vendor, (or AOL if you use them) since we cannot be sure where to tell you to look on your hard drive for your browser’s .exe file.

This should solve the problem of being able to click directly on the links and have them take you to the web.

8. I can’t print the book / it stops printing at a certain page.

Two things we can offer with what is most likely your computer acting up rather than the Special Report file.

  1. Try restarting your computer and printer.

If that doesn’t work….

  1. When you have the Special Report open in Acrobat — go to File, Click Print, then down in the middle where it says “Print Range” fill in Pages from with about 10 or 20 pages (example 8-15).
  2. To print the entire report, simply “Print All.”
