How to get more help

Starting the program and opening files
Start the program from the Windows Start menu by choosing Nuance PDF
Reader 7 or by double-clicking the program icon on the desktop. You can
also start the program by dragging a PDF or XPS file onto the program
icon on your desktop or taskbar.
Once the program is open there are several ways to open files:
• Use File / Open to open one or more PDF or XPS files. XPS files are
converted to PDF, leaving the original XPS file intact. The PDF file
has the same name and location as the XPS file.
• Choose a recently opened PDF file from Recent Files in the File
menu.
• Drag and drop one or more PDF or XPS files onto the program icon
or onto the program window.
• Double click a PDF file on the desktop, in Windows Explorer or as a
mail attachment, or click a link to a PDF file in Internet Explorer.
Providing you set PDF Reader as your default viewer during
installation, the PDF file will be opened in the Reader.
Use the Window menu to switch between open files and Edit / Prefer-
ences / General to set start-up and page display options.
