Follow these steps:

  1. To open the PDF file, click the link or icon that represents it. The PDF file may automatically download and open in your browser, depending on your Internet browser and the settings for the PDF reader program.
  2. A little toolbar should display as you move your mouse cursor over the content. The toolbar is usually seen in the upper-right or lower-right corner of the screen.
  3. To save the PDF file, locate the toolbar and click the icon that looks like a computer diskette or an arrow pointing down. If the toolbar isn't visible, check for the Save as or Save page as an option in your browser's file menu. (If the menu bar is hidden, press Alt to reveal it.) You can also pick the document with the right-click menu.
  4. A popup should appear, allowing you to choose a location for the file to be saved. By choosing the Desktop option, you can easily locate the PDF file afterward.
  5. At this point, you can rename the file if you want. If you haven't already, you can skip this step.
  6. To download the PDF file, click Save or Ok.
