PAR e-Manuals can be downloaded via the original confirmation email or from the My Downloads page on parinc.com (you will need to have a registered customer account with PAR) to one specific device. They may also be viewed via a web browser through PARiConnect, PAR’s online assessment platform.
e-Manuals are provided in a DRM-protected format that prohibits printing and copying any portion of the manual. To download and view our e-Manuals on your Windows or Mac computer, iPad, or Android tablet, you will need to install reader software that supports Adobe DRM. If you do not already have an Adobe.com login and compatible reader software installed on your device, you will need to download one of these programs and create an account. For the latest requirements and downloads, visit the website for the reader of your choice:
Adobe Digital Editions: Adobe Digital Editions software is a secure platform that allows users to download and view electronic publications for Apple iOS, Windows, and Android. Both the software and the Adobe.com account are available at no charge.
BlueFire Reader: The Bluefire Reader app is available for Apple iOS, Android, and Windows. You may incur a small fee for the app download.
Log in to your existing PARiConnect account and click on the Digital Library link in the Quick Links section. If you do not have a PARiConnect account yet, please fill in this form or contact us. You can then view your e-Manuals on-demand on any PARiConnect-compatible browser.
PARiConnect requires a Windows®-based, Chrome OS, or Mac desktop or laptop computer with an Internet connection and the latest version of one of the following web browsers: Chrome™, Safari®, Firefox®, or Microsoft Edge. PARiConnect will run on any version of the Apple iPad running iOS 10 or higher and on Android tablets.
e-Manuals from PAR can be downloaded and viewed on the iPad and on Android tablets. Use of e-Manuals on these tablets requires you to download Adobe Digital Editions or the BlueFire Reader app onto your device. The PARiConnect Digital Library also allows users to view e-Manuals via a tablet/iPad.
You can create bookmarks to specific pages if you are viewing the downloaded e-Manual. Once you are on a page you wish to bookmark, simply click the “Create Bookmark” button and add a note about the bookmark. To view any bookmarks you have created, click on the Bookmarks tab on the left side of the screen.
Each e-Manual you purchase is licensed for one user. We provide two download links per purchase. The second download link serves as a backup should you experience computer problems, replace your computer, or otherwise lose your original copy. To view your e-Manuals on devices other than the one you used to download, access the Digital Library on PARiConnect. All users with access to your PARiConnect account will be able to view your purchased e-Manuals.
Because e-Manuals are in a DRM-protected format, printing is prohibited. The e-Manual can only be viewed on-screen via Adobe Digital Editions, the Bluefire Reader app, or via the PARiConnect Digital Library. Please purchase the print manual if you need a hard copy. Expedited shipping is available if you require the print manual quickly.
