PDF is also compatible with all main computer platforms.

To view files written in PDF format, you must have Adobe^® Reader installed on your system

PDF problems?

If you're having problems viewing PDF files on our site or if PDF files show up as blank, white documents, here are some solutions:

• Right-click on the link that opens the PDF file. Select "Save As"; this will allow you to choose where to save the file on your computer. After you've saved the file, you should then be able to open it on your PC.

• Open Adobe Reader and find "General Preferences" (usually under "Preferences" under the "File" menu). Search for "Web Browser Integration" and disable it.

Follow these instructions to mail a PDF document as an attachment.
Use the email button at the top of Adobe Reader version 7.0 to send either a link to or an email attachment of a PDF.

For older versions of Adobe Reader:

1. When the document is on your display, click the Save As icon on the left side of the toolbar just above your document.
   

2. In the Save As window, choose a Folder and supply a File name for your document, then click Save.
3. Open your email program and click the icon or tab for attaching a file. When prompted, identify the same Folder and File name that you saved, select it, and send your email.
