HELPFUL HINTS
PDF FORMAT
Downloading
To open the documents in PDF format you will need Adobe Acrobat Reader. If you need to, you can install it for free from WWW.ADOBE.COM (opens in a new window). Once you’ve installed it, just click on the relevant link to download the file.
If you are having problems downloading or you cannot see the icons mentioned below in relation to printing and text selection, it may be because you are running an older version of Acrobat. Visit WWW.ADOBE.COM (opens in a new window) to download the latest version.
Alternatively, if you have trouble downloading or it is taking too long, you can save the document to your computer. To do this, put your mouse on the download link, right click and select ‘save target as’. You can then save the file somewhere on your computer and then open it up through Adobe Acrobat or My Documents/Internet Explorer.
Accessibility
A special Access Adobe website provides tools to convert files into a more accessible format. Visit WWW.ADOBE.COM/PRODUCTS/ACROBAT/ACCESS_ONLINETOOLS.HTML (opens in a new window).
Cut and paste
You can cut and paste information from PDFs: click on the ‘text select’ tool within the Adobe Acrobat tool bar, click and select the required text using the mouse, ‘right-click’ and ‘copy’. You can then paste it into another programme. Please be aware that on some PDFs the ability to copy and paste is explicitly disabled (e.g. our product catalogues where price information needs to be fixed).
Printing
To print a PDF document, make sure you click on the print icon within the Adobe Acrobat tool bar rather than through File, print in the main window tool bar.
WORD FORMAT
Downloading
You can either click on the link and open the file or save the file to your computer. If you do not have Word on your computer, select the PDF version instead (see above).
Printing
To print a Word document, go to File on the toolbar and then select Print.
POWERPOINT
You will require PowerPoint to view any PowerPoint files.
If you do not have PowerPoint installed on your computer you can download PowerPoint viewer from HTTP://WWW.MICROSOFT.COM (opens in a new window).
