   Note: The User Name and Password are both proofer.
2. Locate and double-click the ProofClient directory.
3. In the Windows folder, double-click the setup.exe file.
4. Follow the on-screen prompts to complete the installation.
5. Ensure that Adobe Reader 8.x or later is installed on the workstation and is the default PDF viewer.
   Note: If a Program Compatibility Assistant message appears, click This program installed correctly to clear the error and keep it from appearing again.
