What is the format of download supplements?
Our download supplements are delivered in Zip or PDF formats. For products delivered in .zip format, you will need to extract or unzip the file for viewing and editing. Zip files are “archives” used for distributing and storing files and contain one or more files usually compressed to save space. Zip files make it easy to group files and make transporting and copying these files faster. WindowsXP can open zipped folders on its own, but other version of Microsoft Windows require a zip utility like Winzip to “unzip” zipped files. Macintosh users can use the popular utility Stuffit Expander to uncompress Zip files. For products delivered in PDF format, you will need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 3.0 or higher installed on your computer. If you don’t already have this program, you may download it free from Adobe.
