ENTS:
Several persons have encountered difficulty in trying to read the
file CIVILIZATION AND THE NATURAL ENVIRONMENT because they were
not
familiar with pdf documents. For the benefit of others who may be
in
the same situation, I am quoting a summary statement about pdf's
below.
What is a PDF file?
A Portable Document Format file is a self-contained cross-platform
document. In plain language, it is a file that will look the same
on
the screen and in print, regardless of what kind of computer or
printer someone is using and regardless of what software package
was
originally used to create it.
Although they contain the complete formatting of the original
document, including fonts and images, PDF files are highly
compressed, allowing complex information to be downloaded
efficiently.
What do you need to view and print PDF files?
Virtually anyone - including Windows, DOS, Macintosh and UNIX
system
users - can view and print a PDF file using the free Acrobat
Reader,
which can be installed and configured to work seamlessly within
your
Internet browser.
