What are PDF documents and how do you open them?

PDF is a format which is used to display documents on the Internet exactly as created. Acrobat Reader is free software which makes possible the display and printing out of PDF files. The Federal Institute for Health Protection of Consumers and Veterinary Medicine offers its visitors an array of documents in this format. Once Acrobat Reader has been installed, you can view the PDF documents.

If your Internet browser does not support Acrobat Reader or if you wish to store a document directly onto your hard disk, click with the right mouse button on download (in Windows) or keep the button depressed for a few seconds (Mac) and select from the context menu "Save as…" or something similar.
