How to Download and Use an Offline iGUIDE
iGUIDEs can be viewed offline in a web browser via a downloaded and unzipped copy of the iGUIDE. Download the offline iGUIDE from the link in the iGUIDE Report, unzip the file and navigate your browser to the index.html file within the folder.
While this is a straightforward process on a computer, it may prove more challenging on mobile devices due to the limited ability to manipulate local files.
The most convenient method for tablet presentation is to preload the offline iGUIDE when you have WiFI access.
