Requirements for Acrobat Search
To use Acrobat Search with Model
Sim
PDF docs you need the following
file/directory structure. If you installed Model
Sim
from the CD-ROM or
downloaded the documentation set from our web site
(http://www.model.com
) you will likely have this structure. Search is
intended for use with the complete

documentation set.
Search will not work correctly with individual files that are not part of the
directory structure below.
