PDF files on the site can be viewed and printed using Adobe Reader version 6 and later, which is available free of charge from Adobe .

If you have not already installed this software, you may download it from the Adobe website. Once installed, Acrobat Reader will run every time your browser recognizes a PDF file. Installation and configuration instructions for this software are available on the Adobe website.

Static PDF files, identified by the icon, can be viewed and printed.

Dynamic PDF files, generally forms, are identified by the icon. These documents can be viewed, completed on-screen and printed.

PDF and Accessibility

Plug-in software which allows PDF documents to be read using adaptive technologies is available on the Adobe website. This tool converts PDF documents to HTML format or ASCII text. These versions are then synthesized by common screen readers to produce a sound signal.
