Throughout the IIED site you will encounter references to Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format ("PDF") files. Where ever these occur, you should be able to download the document to print/view off-line or click to view within your web browser as long as you have the free viewer software. In most cases, hard-copy editions are available from the IIED Bookshop at Earthprint.com

What is PDF?
PDF is a format for publishing documents that is independent of your operating system, web browser vendor, or preferred word-processor. You will be able to read these documents whether you use a Windows machine or a Macintosh, whether you use Corel, Microsoft or Lotus software, or even if you use an application-less machine in a cybercafé.

Obtaining the Acrobat PDF Reader
If your web browser is not equipped to read PDF files, you can download free reader software for a range of computers from Adobe Systems Incorporated.

To open a PDF file, simply click on the relevant link or icon. The file will then open in a new window. To save a PDF file directly to your hard disk, right click (PC) or click and hold down (Mac), on the relevant icon and select 'Save Target As' (Internet Explorer) or 'Save Link As' (Netscape) from the pop-up menu that appears, this will give a you dialog box wherein you can specify where on your system you wish the file to be saved.
