The comparative concordance that we are here offering to the public is stored in .PDF (Portable Document File) Format. It requires a special reader for browsing through and printing out pages at will. Use the Adobe Acrobat Reader to do this. If you have not yet done so, you must first download Acrobat Reader (distributed freely by Adobe) and then install it on your comupter. Next you must download a file of the concordance to your computer and open it using the Acrobat Reader program. You will then be able to browse through the pages of that file and print out any or all of its pages using Acrobat Reader.

Here is a sample page from the Comparative Concordance:

Notice that the pages of the concordance are made available in a professional layout, so that browsing through the concordance is very similar to leafing through the pages of a book. This exquisite layout is also preserved in printout. If you so desire, you could print out all the pages of the concordance (a total of 14,334 pages!) and use them in book form after binding. Typically you will only want to print out the pages that pertain to one or more specific Arabic roots (cf. section 4 for a definition) that you are studying. Then you will have a hardcopy of the  portion of the concordance that interests you most.
