| 2. | After installation you may want to adjust your print settings to keep your printer as the “default” printer. |
| 3. | When printing PDF documents in NFIRS 5 Alive make sure to select the PDF driver when the print options dialog appears. |
| 4. | With this upgrade PDF publishing opens a new world for the publishing and distribution of performance statistics. The landscape are not designed for printing. Instead these matrices are designed to display in PDF on the desktop, the iPad, the iPhone, the iPod Touch and on Android devices. |
