What are Adobe Acrobat (.pdf) files and how do I read them?
PDF files are Portable Document Format files. They are a file format developed by Adobe that allow print documents to be read by a large number of different types of computers and devices. To read PDF files you need to have Adobe Acrobat Reader (or the equivalent for your machine) installed. You can download the program for free on Adobe’s website: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readermain.html Some users may experience problems with the Acrobat plug-in after upgrading to a more recent version of Internet Explorer. We recommend you reinstall the plug-in if you experience problems.
