Using Your Browser's “Print” Command

You can use the "Print" command on your Internet browser software to print out any Fact Sheet you are viewing. It will print out as you see it on your screen. The printout will not fit on a single page.


The “Print Version” Of Fact Sheets

The InfoNet Fact Sheets were designed to fit on a single page in a 3-column format. This format seems to be the easiest to print out and read. Fact Sheets can be downloaded and printed in this format using either Microsoft Word 97 (*.doc) format, or Adobe Acrobat (*.pdf) format.

NOTE: If you want to save Fact Sheets on your computer, right-click on the download buttons below. Your browser should then give you the option of saving the file.


A Note On Formats

To use Microsoft Word 97 (*.doc) documents, you must have Microsoft Word 97 software installed on your computer. Earlier versions of Word cannot be used to view and print Word 97 documents, unless you download and install Word 97 Converter from Microsoft.

Adobe Acrobat (*.pdf) documents are less than half the size of Word 97 documents, so they can be downloaded much faster. To use them, you must have Adobe Acrobat Reader software installed on your computer. This software is available at no charge from Adobe.
