Most of documents on this Web site (lab exercises, lecture notes, etc.) are
posted in Adobe Acrobat (pdf) format. Most browsers are capable of reading pdf
files. You can also get the latest version of Adobe Acrobat reader from Adobe Web Site.
For large pdf files posted on the Web (MB and bigger), you get a much better
response time by downloading the whole file and then using Acrobat reader to
read the down loaded file. This is the default for Netscape but not on
Explorer. When you read a large pdf file with Explorer, depending on its
settings, you may get the file partially downloaded and you may have to wait
when you are scrolling through the file (or worse, the document is chopped off
at the bottom). The best approach with Explorer is to download the
complete file (put the pointer on the link, press
right button of your mouse and use "save-as" option) and use Acrobat reader to
open and print the file.
