Portable document format (PDF) files

Some material on the SPUC website is in portable document format (PDF). This allows the appearance of files which have been generated in software such as Word and printers' page-layout programs to be retained when they are placed on the web. PDF files tend to be larger than web pages and therefore take longer to download.

To view such files you need software such as Adobe® Reader® which can be downloaded free of charge. If you use Adobe Reader to look at PDF files, you can search for entries with that software's search-facility which is accessed by clicking on the button that has a picture of a pair of binoculars on it.
