Double-click the .tar file you will find in this directory. This is a
compressed form of all the data produced during the NMR experiment.

Your computer system will probably not know what to do with the .tar
file format. Don't worry about that now. Save the document; make sure
you know where your system stores downloaded files.

Close your browser, and go to the location in which these files are stored.
In this example, downloaded files are simply put on the desktop; your
system may put it elsewhere. Decompress the file with a program like
WinZip or Stuff-It Expander. Once your file has been decompressed,
click on the folder created by this process, then on the pdata folder within.

Within pdata, you will see a folder labeled 1; click on it. Have
patience - you're almost to the actual data!

This folder contains a number of files. These include all the information
generated during your NMR run. You are most interested in the file 1r,
which holds your transformed spectrum. Make sure you know exactly
where this file is stored; this is the location you must supply to the NUTS
program. If you like, you can copy the file to a floppy.
