Viewing PDF files
All scanned articles and some articles in online databases are stored in Acrobat PDF (Portable Document Format) format. You will need Acrobat Reader software installed on the computer you are using to view the file.
When you open a PDF file in your web browser an Acrobat toolbar appears at the top of the document window. Choose Fit page width for best on screen viewing.
Getting back to the catalogue from an article
When you click a link in the catalogue to go to an online reserve article in PDF format, a redirect web page is sometimes inserted. You may see this briefly before the article loads.
This may cause problems when you try to go back. Clicking the Back button will take you to the redirection page which then sends you back the PDF article.
