Instructions for reading these files


You have to download the latest version of Adobe Reader from
Install it (it doesn't install automatically), and then make sure your browser points to the right version. It's a good idea to uninstall previous versions of Adobe Reader so your browser finds the right version.

Everyone who has managed to get all that configured correctly, and who is using enough bandwidth, is able to download the books. I know, it's a total pain, but the books, because they are graphics intensive, are not as easy to download as text-only pdf files. We don't maintain much backwards compatibility - it makes the files too big.

For some browsers, reading or printing within the browser is not so good - you should download the book to your hard drive, close your browser, open Adobe Reader, open and read and/or print the book.

The variables are
1. Your machine and your operating system
2. Your browser: how compatible it is with Adobe, and how you have it configured
3. The version of Adobe Reader you're using
4. Your internet connection (wireless may not be giving you enough bandwidth)
5. Whether you're trying to open Adobe Reader within your browser or downloading first to your hard drive, then opening the file in the Reader.
