Pages you usually view on websites are generally in HTML (or HTM) format. For programming purposes the pages on this website are of a type called 'aspx', a Microsoft web technology. Despite this, the pages you view are in HTML. However, for ease of viewing and printing they are sometimes better stored in other formats:


RTF format

An RTF (Rich Text Format) document is a basic text document but can include some formatting such as bold type, italics, tables, etc. RTF can be viewed in Microsoft Word, Microsoft WordPad, and most other word processing programs on your computer. An example of an RTF file would be myfile.rtf


When you click on a link to an RTF file your browser software (e.g. Internet Explorer) will ask you whether you wish to open the file or save it on your computer.


PDF format    download Adobe Reader free now >>

A PDF (Portable Document Format) document can be viewed and printed on all computer types and platforms (PC, Mac, etc) so long as Adobe Reader is installed. A PDF file cannot be edited using this free software, but text can be selected, cut and pasted in to other programs on your computer. An example of a PDF file would be myfile.pdf

When you click on a link to a PDF file your browser software (e.g. Internet Explorer) will open the file using Adobe Reader software. If you do not have Adobe Reader you can download it free by clicking here.


DOC format

A DOC document is a more advanced text document which can have much more formatting than, for example, an RTF document. A DOC document can be viewed in Microsoft Word, Microsoft WordPad (but may temporarily lose some of its formatting because WordPad is not as powerful as Word), and some other word processing programs on your computer. An example of a DOC file would be myfile.doc

When you click on a link to an DOC file your browser software (e.g. Internet Explorer) will ask you whether you wish to open the file or save it on your computer.
