Viewing and Printing PDF Files

Documents created in the Portable Document Format (PDF) may be viewed and printed from virtually any workstation using the Adobe Acrobat Reader software from Adobe Systems Inc. The PDF format is modeled after the PostScript printing language and is device and resolution independent. Versions of Acrobat Reader run on DOS, Windows, Macintosh and Unix systems.

To view or print the downloadable PDF files on this web site, you will need the Adobe Acrobat Reader. Ideally, you will benefit more if you also have Netscape Navigator version 4 or higher or Internet Explorer version 4 or higher; these newer browsers versions interface with Adobe Acrobat Reader for optimal performance.

About printing .pdf files: Use the Print button on the Acrobat Reader toolbar rather than the Print button on your browser to print .pdf files. If you print blank sheets, you have used your browser print button instead of the Acrobat Reader print button.

To download the Adobe Acrobat Reader PDF viewer, click the icon below. Please read the instructions on the Adobe web site completely for installing and configuring to your browser.

If you already have the Adobe Acrobat Reader, return to the previous page and click on a link for the PDF document you wish to view.
