+Bundle by executing the command: latex acrotex.ins. The eq2db Package (optional)
+can be installed with the command: latex eq2db.ins.
+
+Now try LaTeXing the file webeqtst.tex, with the appropriate driver
+option set: E.g.,
+\usepackage[dvipsone]{web}

+\usepackage[dvipdfm]{web}
+
+Hopefully everything will work correctly.
+
+The manual of usage, webeqman.pdf, was written using the web and
+exerquiz packages. The printable version, webeqman_p.pdf is the
+manual re-LaTeXed using the `forpaper' option of the exerquiz
+package. All the details are contained in this manual.
+
+If you want to do something fancy with eForms, review the eformman.pdf.
