Help with PDF Files

PDF stands for Portable Document Format. It is a universal file format that displays the fonts, images, graphics and layout of a document, regardless of the application and platform used to create it.

It ensures that a document on screen will look exactly the same when printed out. Downloading a document in this way saves time, money and resources, because there's no delay while you wait for the document to be posted to you.

 

In order to view and print a PDF document, you will need to download the free PDF viewer from the Adobe website. Most computers come with the free Adobe Reader ® software as standard.
