Many documents on the MSBA site are posted in Portable Document Format (PDF), a format which allows MSBA to maintain the integrity of the document and speed download time of lengthy reports. Links leading to PDFs will be noted like this (PDF). To download and view copies of a PDF, you must have the Adobe Acrobat Reader application. This software may be downloaded for free.

Adobe recommends users view PDFs with the 3.0 or higher version of Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator or AOL browser. Once you have downloaded and installed Adobe Acrobat Reader, you should be able to view the PDF automatically in the browser window when you click on the PDF link on a Web site.
