Viewing and printing pdf files

The files are stored in pdf format (a compressed version of postscript). To view and print a pdf file you need Adobe Acrobat Reader. If this is not installed on your system then do this (or ask your system manager to do it for you):

• Download Adobe Acrobat Reader from the Adobe site http://www.adobe.com/ and install it as a "plugin" to your browser. When you load a pdf file Acrobat Reader is automatically started and displays the pdf file in the browser window. You may print and save the file from the viewer.
• Alternatively, Acrobat Reader may be installed as a helper application to your browser. Again the viewer is automatically started when you load a pdf file but not in the browser window. You may print and save the file from the viewer.
