or
). Click on the resizing arrows and drag them to the left to reduce the size of the bookmark frame and to the right to expand the bookmark frame.
On a moderately sized screen, a document can get relatively small by the time you get all three frames (side menu, title, and the document) on your screen. There are several things you can do to create a full screen view of the document.
1. Resizing the side menu in Internet Explorer:
The side menu can be resized by moving the cursor over the right vertical edge of the menu's frame until the frame resizing arrows appear (
2. To get the document to display in an entirely new full window without the title or side menu you can:
- On the PC: Right click on the link to the document and choose Open in a New Window from the popup menu.
- On the Mac: Hold down on the link to the document and choose Open Link in New Window from the popup menu.
To return from a full screen view, just close the window.
3. To download an entire pdf file to your local machine so that you can view it later without being connected to the Web you can:
- On the PC: Right click on the link to the document and choose Save Target As... from the popup menu.
- On the Mac: Hold down on the link to the document and choose Download Link to Disk from the popup menu.

4. A new menu will be displayed with options for "check for new versions of stored pages."
5. Click on "every visit to the page."
6. Continue clicking "OK" until you are out of all the menus.
Because of the sizes of some of the documents and the variety of speeds of people's hardware, we have indicated the size of the larger pdf documents, e.g. (500k pdf). If a pdf has no size attached you can assume that it is not significant in size.
Incremental Downloading of Documents for Faster Viewing
Some of the pdf documents on this Web site are quite large and have been optimized for incremental downloading. (Incremental downloading allows the user to view one page at a time without having to download the entire document). Our Web site supports incremental downloading and we suggest that you upgrade to Acrobat Reader 5.0 to take full advantage of this feature. To upgrade, click here to go to the upgrade page at the Adobe Site and follow the directions.
Each of the larger pdf documents (ICD, Scoping Docs) has bookmarks that allow easy access into the document. To view the document using bookmarks:
- On both the PC and Mac: Select the Bookmarks and Page button from the Acrobat Reader Application Bar.
The bookmark window can be closed to expand screen space. It can also be resized. This can be done by moving the cursor over the right vertical edge of the bookmark frame until the frame resizing arrows appear (
To download an entire pdf file to your local machine so that you can view it later without being connected to the Web you can:
- On the PC: Right click on the link to the document and choose Save Target As... from the popup menu.
- On the Mac: Hold down on the link to the document and choose Download Link to Disk from the popup menu.
The pdf documents can be best printed with Adobe Acrobat Reader 5.0.
To print the content of a frame without printing the other Web site frames (side menu and title) you can:
- On the PC:
- Select the frame to be printed by clicking on it and click on the Print button on the Browser Navigation Bar, or
- Choose Print under the file menu and choose Only the selected frame in the print dialog box, or

- Choose Print under the file menu and choose Print in the dialog box. It will print the selected frame automatically.
If the frame contains a pdf file opened with the Acrobat Reader Plug-in in your browser, use the Acrobat Reader Application Bar Print button to print the file.
With large files it sometimes helps to download the entire file, open it in Acrobat Reader, and then print it.
