Help with PDFs

Trouble Shooting PDF Files

Some documents on this website are available in Portable Document Format also called "PDF". Throughout this website they may be marked by this icon . Some complex documents are presented in PDF because they contain graphs, images, or special text that cannot be displayed properly through the typical web browser. The tips below will help you view, print, and download copies of these documents from this website.

All PDF files should be viewed with Acrobat Reader version 5 or higher. If you don't have Adobe Reader you can get it here [1] for free.
To view PDF files, the "allow fast web view" entry in Acrobat Reader should be disabled.
In Version 5: open Acrobat Reader and go to Edit/Preferences/General/Options and disable "allow fast web view."
For Version 6: open Acrobat Reader and go to Edit/Preferences/Internet and disable "allow fast web view."

Important: Some PDF files on the web site are very large. File size is generally indicated near the file name or link (i.e. 656k or 1.3 MB). If you have trouble opening a large file, download the file and save it to your computer. Once saved to your hard drive the file should open more quickly.
