Instructions for Reading Files
Please read the following instructions if you are unfamiliar with reading files downloaded from our web site:
After the file has been downloaded, it may be opened with the appropriate type of software package (word processing, spreadsheet, etc.). Most newer packages will convert these files, if needed, as you open them.
If the downloaded file has a .DOC extension and your word processing package cannot convert the file, you may download the Microsoft Viewer for Word from Microsoft's site and install it on your pc. From this program, you may open the .DOC file you downloaded from our site to read it.
If the downloaded file has a .PDF extension, you may download Acrobat Reader from Adobe's site and install it on your pc. You can either open the file from the reader or by double-clicking on the downloaded file.
