Reference
Guide Recommendations
| The PDF
links are more likely to work if you have the Acrobat Reader
4.0 version (see downloading notes below). |
Link
to the PDF files from the menu above. A separate window opens for
each PDF file that you open. By minimizing window sizes you may
see both the menu and the open PDF files. Close PDF files as you
finish with them.
Each
link in the menu and in the PDF files takes you to the beginning
of an opening file. You may then use the Adobe Reader's binocular
icon to search by key phrase for a test of interest. Or you may
manually scroll to find a test.
Each
page of the Test Index file has a red box at the top, as one way
of linking back to this menu. Also, the page numbers in the Test
Index file are linked to the alphabetic files containing the test
descriptions. Reminder: each page link takes you to the beginning
of an alphabetic file. Then scroll to a test, or use the binocular
icon for a keyword search.
Updates:
New and replacement tests are marked in the Reference Guide
files in red font and are linked to the test descriptions. Use your
browser's or Adobe Reader's back button to return to the originating
file. Current updates are also noted in a text box below.

Downloading
Adobe Acrobat Reader
The
current version of Acrobat Reader is preferred, and may be necessary,
for opening the Reference Guide files and using the links in them.
Clicking
the following Adobe Acrobat Reader graphic will take you to the
download website. (Downloading this reader takes only a few moments.)

Adobe
Acrobat offers a patch that updates the accessibility features of
Acrobat Reader. The accessibility features enhance the Acrobat Reader's
compatibility with reading devices for the sight impaired.
Tips
for Using Adobe Acrobat Reader
- Use your
browser's back button to return to this page of links.
- If you are
a first time PDF user, run your cursor over the Adobe Reader icons
above the text material. Note that you can save, print, search,
jump forward & backward through pages, and zoom the page size.
- The page
number task bar is below the text. Task bar numbers correspond
with the page numbering of one file, NOT with the overall page
numbering of the Reference Guide itself.
- To print
particular pages, enter the task bar page numbers in the Print
window.
- If you will
be a regular online user, you may find it handy to print page
2, the Contents page, to hang on your bulletin board.
