How can I print or download the full text or articles from electronic journals? Which version should I choose?
Most electronic journal publishers give you a choice of PDF of HTML versions of the articles. Once you are viewing the article on the screen, you can use the browser’s Print or Save commands to print or download that article. PDF is the most popular because the printouts look exactly like a copy of the print article and maintain pagination and chart size/placement. The free Adobe Acrobat Reader software is required to view PDF files. HTML versions produce regular web pages and do not require any helper software. The drawback of HTML is that the page numbering of your printout out may not be the same as the original article, and graphics may be separate files that you have to enlarge and/or print separately. The benefits to HTML versions are that you can copy and paste text from these articles into other documents and that you can often download or enlarge the graphics for more in-depth study.
