How do I test my system for
compatibility?
First try downloading and printing one of the materials available in the sample
section of the specific Learning A-Z website to make sure that all third party
software is set up correctly. Note that Acrobat displays a Done message almost
immediately, but it could be premature and you may have to wait before your
document is truly ready. If you are getting garbled text or missing diagrams,
please visit our printing questions page. What is a cookie?
