AccuAgency requires Adobe Reader to print certain forms and other printed items from the rater, below are the setup steps to get it up and running on your system. The minimum version of Adobe Reader required is version 10 also labeled as "X" however we recommend using the latest version, Acrobat Reader DC. 

Note: Blank white screens when printing or forms with no data present are common issues with printing due to either Adobe Reader not being installed or a configuration issue. Using the steps below should correct any issues, as always if you need any assistance contact AccuAgency Technical Support Here.

Note: If Adobe Reader is already installed skip the Installation Guide and go to the Setup Guide below.
