PDF, or Portable Document Format, is technology that allows documents from other sources to be accurately reproduced on the Internet.
PDF is not supported by most browsers and requires additional software, a PDF reader, to be installed on your computer.
Adobe Acrobat ReaderĀ®, a PDF reader, can be downloaded free of charge.
Can my system handle PDF?
When you click on any link labeled "Download PDF File" on the BSA site you should see the document appear within your browser. If it does - your system can already handle PDF
If it does not - you will have to download and install a PDF reader.
Note: the browser will usually let you know this by displaying a "How to handle file type" or "Save file to disk" message.
