PDF Download Tips
Note: Many download
problems are due to temporary internet or server problems and trying the
download later may be successful.
There are two ways to view a PDF file from our
web site:
- Open the file in your browser, using the
Adobe Acrobat Reader® plug-in.
- Download the file and save it on your
computer, and then open it directly with Acrobat Reader®.
The Adobe software program, Acrobat Reader®,
is needed to open a PDF document. This software can be downloaded free of
charge from Adobe's web site. You download the version that matches the type
of computer that you have. The Acrobat Reader is available for
downloading from Adobe.
Opening the PDF file in your browser:
- Left- click on the link to open the PDF
file in your browser.
- When opening a file on screen, please be
patient. PDF files often take time to open. If it looks as though the
program has stopped opening the file, clicking on the RELOAD or REFRESH
button on your browser toolbar may help.
- Once the PDF document is open in your
browser window you may save the document to your computer. Click on the
Save button on the Reader toolbar; this icon looks like a floppy disk and
is located second from the left.
Download the PDF File and Save it to Your
Computer
- If you are having trouble opening the PDF
file, try saving the file to the hard drive on your computer and opening
it from there. It will open and print much more quickly.
- Hold your cursor over the link and
right-click (Windows).
- Select "Save target as" (in
Internet Explorer) or "save link as" (in Netscape) and save it
to a folder on your hard drive by selecting a file name and folder
location.
- Once the file is downloaded click on the
file in the folder you saved it to and the Adobe Acrobat Reader will open
it.
- For Macintosh - Option-click on the link of
the file that you wish to download and specify a local path and file name.
Many of the PDF files on this site are
quite large (more than 8mb) and may therefore take several minutes to download,
depending on the speed of your modem and on how busy the server computer is.
