PDF Documents

A number of documents available for viewing are in Adobe® Acrobat®Portable Document Format (PDF). PDF format is used to preserve the content and layout of our publications. Publications in PDF can only be viewed and printed using the Adobe Acrobat Reader. You can download Acrobat Reader at the Adobe Systems Inc. site, free of charge. Click on the following link to go to the relevant page on the Adobe site: http://www.adobe.com/reader/

People using screen-reading devices generally are unable to read documents directly in PDF format, until they have an accessibility plug-in installed on their system along with the Adobe Acrobat Reader. This plug-in is available for free from Adobe and your screen reader may do this automatically. Adobe also has online tools that will convert PDF files to HTML on request. To get the plug-in and latest news about Adobe's accessibility tools and services, visit the Access Adobe site: http://access.adobe.com/
