What is a PDF file and how can I view it?

Files with the .pdf extension are documents, that are optimized to be viewed on screen and for printing. In the download area of our website, you can find most manuals of our products in the popular PDF format. Also you can read installation notes (called "readme.pdf") for some drivers and often data sheets for our products in the PDF format on the relevant pages.

Under Windows you need to install a software to view such files. We recommend to use the Acrobat Reader.

Under Mac OS X, PDF files are natively supported by the Preview application.
