Accessing pdf documents

To preserve the original layout of the documents they are presented in Portable Document Format (.pdf). To open the documents you need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader 4 installed on your computer. The Acrobat Reader will open the documents directly in your browser.

Go to the Adobe Acrobat Reader download site and follow the instructions to install the reader (free download).

Access Speed

This site uses byteserving to ensure the speedier downloading of PDF documents. Please read the following text to find out if your browser is configured to handle it.

Configuration PDF Preparation

Does your browser support byteserving?

The browsers that most reliably support byteserving are Netscape Navigator 3.x and later and Microsoft Internet Explorer 3.x and later (Windows only). These browsers are available as free downloads. To download them or get more information, go to the following sites:

Netscape Products
Microsoft Internet Explorer for Windows
Microsoft Internet Explorer for Mac OS

Web Servers

When troubleshooting byteserve issues, first check your system and browser configuration. Answer three questions:
- Does your browser support byteserving?
- Is Acrobat set up as a plug-in?
- Are the web browser plug-ins or ActiveX controls installed in the correct locations?

If the answer to all three is "yes," then your system and browser are properly configured, and any problem with byteserving is likely due to another issue, such as whether the PDF files have been optimized for byteserving or whether the Web browser supports byteserving.
