To open a PDF file you can either:
1. Download a program called Acrobat Reader and install it onto your computer. The program is available free of charge from the Adobe Acrobat site. We provide these links for the user wherever we list PDF Documents.
2. Use an online PDF conversion tool. You can visit the Adobe Acrobat website, type in the address of a PDF file and get it to translate the file into a more readable format while you wait. Or you can email the address of the file (or the file itself) to Adobe, and they will email a translation back. These translations of the files may not be as clearly formatted as the original PDF file.
3. If you are having difficulties downloading a PDF then you may need to update your version of Adobe Reader. See 'Download Adobe Reader' to get the latest version of this software.
