Documents

We publish some files in Portable Document Format ( PDF). PDF files are platform independent (designed with the Internet in mind) and facilitate efficient distribution of large, complex documents. You will need the appropriate version of Adobe(R) Acrobat(R) Reader to view, navigate, and print PDF files.

PDF documents may not be readily accessible to screen readers and may not be formatted for visually impaired users. The following tools can be used to convert PDF documents into plain text or plain HTML documents. You can translate a PDF into a text only or plain HTML by using a script or sending a file as an attachment.

• Adobe Conversion Script
  Go to the following URL (web address) and type in the URL of any PDF, the document will be converted into a text only HTML document.
  - Conversion: www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/access_onlinetools.html
  - Further Information: www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/access_tools_faq.html
• Google
  Similarly, type in the URL of any PDF at google.com and click on 'View as HTML' in the results — the document will be converted into a text only HTML document.
• Email
  For converting offline documents, you can send your PDF as an e-mail attachment, a converted version of the document will be posted back to you.
