The files available for download are either in compressed form
(.zip files, to minimize the size and download time), or
are MS Word documents (.doc files), MS PowerPoint files
(.ppt or .pps files), WordPerfect files (.wpd), Adobe

| Zip Reader for Windows (free) |
|
| WINZIP (free for 21-day trial period) |
|
Follow the directions on the corresponding site to download and install it.
After you download one of the following files (and possibly unzip it), you may need special software to view or use it; see the instructions associated with each file. If you need the PowerPoint viewer and don't have PowerPoint on your system, you may download that free viewer program from a Microsoft site. (Download the viewer).
