How to Download
PDF Files:
Please print this page
before proceeding, in order to make the downloading process quick and
easy to follow!
Our downloadable materials
are best viewed though Internet Explorer version 4.0 or higher, Netscape
Navigator version 3.0 or higher, and AOL version 4.0 or higher. If
you need to upgrade your browser, please do that first -- before
you download the Acrobat Reader. Upgrading your browser first will
allow the Acrobat Reader to install the files necessary to display all
the contents of these documents.
The documents you may access
from this website have been stored in PDF (portable document file)
format. This is a standard document storage format which allows
you to download and print our materials quickly. You must,
however, have the free program, Adobe Acrobat Reader version 3.0 or
higher, installed on your local computer in order to read the downloaded
files. Using earlier versions of this program may prohibit you
from reading these materials. Note: If you
already have this program installed, you do not need to download it.
Proceed to point C
and follow the instructions for downloading and printing your
project materials!
