This web
site publishes numerous documents using Adobe's(R) Portable Document
Format (PDF). This icon next to a document means that it has been placed
in a PDF and may be displayed or printed exactly as the author created
the document.
To display
or print the document, you must download the free Acrobat(R) Reader
from the Adobe(R) web site. The Acrobat(R) Reader allows anyone to view,

About PDF
Files
Many documents at this site are offered as PDF files, so that as many
people as possible can view or print them. All PDF files at this site
are labeled either as "PDF" or "PDF Version."
Why PDF
Files?
It can be difficult to share documents created in a particular software
application on a particular kind of computer with people who don't have
copies of that software or who are using another kind of computer. But
when a document is made into a PDF (Portable Document Format) file,
people using Macintosh, UNIX, Windows PC, or other computers can view
or print that document, whether or not they have the software used to
create it. Because PDF files are so portable, they are quickly becoming
popular with Internet users.
How to
Use PDF Files
To use PDF files, you first must download and install Adobe Acrobat
Reader, a free application you can use to view or print PDF files.
