Sample Files

Some of the tutorials require sample files. Depending on how you access these tutorials and your browser settings, downloads may be automatically saved in a location such as the Downloads folder, or you may be prompted to choose a save location.

Regardless of the download method, we recommend you store the unzipped sample files in a single location. For example, create a folder named tutorials in your Documents folder, and then extract into that folder to create subfolders that contain the files for each tutorial.”

The following tutorials use sample files. Click the link provided in each tutorial to download the sample files for that tutorial.
