Introduction to the CD ROM Edition of ISGOTT This edition is presented in ‘Portable Document Format’ and requires the Adobe Acrobat® Reader (v3 or later) to present it on screen. That program is a product of Adobe Corporation and a free copy is supplied on the CD ROM, although many computers will already have a copy installed. Please note that this publication cannot be used with earlier versions of Acrobat, eg version 2. For full instruction in how to use the program, please view the documents listed under Acrobat’s help menu. If you are not familiar with the program spend a few minutes exploring the facilities offered in the menus and buttons at the top of the screen. You cannot damage or accidentally delete ISGOTT using the Acrobat or indeed any program since the information on the CD ROM is ‘read-only’ and cannot be changed. We have tried to make ISGOTT appear almost identically on screen and on paper but note the following differences: • although each ‘electronic page’ contains the same information as the corresponding printed page, their numbers differ. The CD ROM edition is numbered sequentially so that it corresponds with the page numbers indicated by the Acrobat program. most computer screens cannot display a page of A4 text at full size but you may use the Acrobat program to resize the displayed image to suit your screen.•
For further information please refer to the documentation supplied with this edition and look at the ‘README.TXT’ file on the CD ROM (eg using the Notepad program supplied with Microsoft Windows®). This contains information not available when the documentation was printed.
