PDF Documents

• PDF documents are image files, often scanned images of an original journal article or document. To open PDF documents you need Adobe Reader software on your computer. Adobe Reader is sometimes bundled with Web browsers, so it may already be on your machine.

  If you can't open a .pdf file, try the following:

  1. Find the .pdf file on your desk top or in your download folder. Double click on the icon. If Adobe Reader is on your computer, the file will open.

  2. Go to the Adobe Reader home page to download the software free: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html.
