------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Using the Map-By-Map Directory:

1. Once you have installed and started the Acrobat Reader software, ensure that
the CD is in the CD-ROM drive.

2. Choose "File -> Open" from the menu bar

3. Browse to your CD-ROM drive and open the directory/folder labelled "BATLDIRS".

4. Open the file named "B_ATLAS.PDF"

5. To browse the contents, use the mouse to select ("click") the appropriate text
on the title page and table of contents. The contents of the relevant file will
be displayed.

6. To "find" within the file that is currently displayed (i.e., directory 
information for a single map), choose "Edit -> Find" from the menu bar and
then enter the appropriate "find" criteria.

7. To "search" for information in the entire Map-By-Map directory (i.e., 
irrespective of which file contains the information):

a. choose "Edit -> Search -> Select Index" from the menu bar.

b. in the "Index Selection" dialog box, choose "Map-By-Map Directory Index". 
If that index is not displayed, select the "Add" button and then open the
file in the BATLDIRS directory/folder labelled "BATLINDX.PDX". Make sure that
there is a check-mark in the box to the left of the words "Map-By-Map Directory
Index" before selecting the "OK" button on the "Index Selection" dialog box.
Note: the B_ATLAS.PDF file does not need to be open for Acrobat Reader to
successfully attach and search the index. Once you have attached the index,
it will remain attached each time you start Acrobat Reader. Thereafter, you
need not repeat steps 7a and 7b.

c. Select "Edit -> Search -> Query" from the menu bar.

d. Enter the appropriate "Search" criteria

e. "Edit -> Search -> Word Assistant" can be used to find some possible
alternative spellings. NB:  please note that many limitations imposed by
atlas transliteration and name selection policy are not eliminated by 
this feature. See the "GUIDELINES" file (via the Table of Contents) and 
the atlas front matter (print version of atlas) for more information. 
For example, if the atlas lists only "Zucchabar", then a search for
"Zoucchabar", "Zukkhabar", "Succhabar", etc. will fail to locate the entry.

More information concerning the construction of "Find" and "Search" criteria
can be obtained by selecting "Help -> Reader Guide" from the menu bar.
