However, only the free Adobe Acrobat Reader software is needed.</p><h3>Multiple Users Completing a Workspace PDF Form</h3><p>If more than one person is filling out a Workspace PDF form, Grants.gov recommends that the same version of Adobe Acrobat Reader software be used by each person to avoid version compatibility issues. Check the version number of the Adobe Acrobat Reader software on each user's computer to make sure the versions match. Using different versions of Adobe Acrobat Reader may cause submission and/or save errors – even if each version is individually compatible with Grants.gov.</p><h3>Security Settings</h3><p>Security settings on your local network or computer could impact your use of Adobe Acrobat Reader. Please consider the following:</p><ul><li><p>If you receive a security message when trying to download a new version of Adobe Acrobat Reader, your computer's settings may not permit you to download and install new software. For help with such an issue, you should contact your network administrator.</p></li><li><p>If you receive a security risk notice when trying to upload or view a PDF form, you might be prompted to "trust" the file.</p></li></ul><p>To trust PDF files in Adobe Acrobat Reader:</p><ol><li><p>Click on <b>Edit</b>.</p></li><li><p>Then click on <b>Preferences</b>.</p></li><li><p>Then click on <b>Security (Enhanced)</b>.</p></li><li><p>Under <b>Privileged Locations</b>, click on <b>Add Folder Path</b>.</p></li><li><p>Browse to the folder containing your application files and click on <b>OK</b>.</p></li><li><p>The specified folder is now trusted by Adobe security settings.</p></li></ol></div></div></div><div class="desktop:grid-col-3 tablet:grid-col-3 mobile-lg:grid-col-12
