Downloading Pathagoras

Pathagoras is distributed exclusively over the Internet. 

Retail Version:  When you purchase a retail license from the Pathagoras website, you will be directed to a site from which to download the full Pathagoras program.

Demo version:  Pathagoras also offers a free 90-day trial version.  Download the Pathagoras Demo from the Pathagoras website at www.pathagoras.com.

You should save the downloaded file (called Pathagoras Setup.exe) to a location on your computer where you can readily find it. We recommend the desktop, at least until you have installed Pathagoras. Once installed, you can erase the Setup file.

Installing Pathagoras

After downloading Pathagoras from the appropriate source, double-click on the Pathagoras Setup.exe file and follow the prompts.  All files required by the program will be moved to their proper locations. 

After you have installed Pathagoras, it will automatically open and automatically close alongside Word.  There is no separate program to activate in order to use Pathagoras.

Access to Pathagoras’ features is done through the new toolbar that now resides in the menu area of your screen:
