How to use the PDF files on the Medway Council site

Some of the documents on this site are available in Adobe Systems' Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF).

To view these documents you need to use a PDF file viewer such as Acrobat Reader or Acrobat Exchange from Adobe Systems Incorporated.

Acrobat Reader is available at no charge from:

• Adobe Systems (www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/readstep2.html) (a very busy site)

Adobe's web site also has a version for people with visual difficulties (http://access.adobe.com).

You should be aware that documents held in this format are typically much larger than simple text files. If you are connected via a slow modem over a telephone line, you should consider the likely download time before attempting to retrieve such documents. In order to help you decide, the size of the PDF file is stated alongside its description.
