Make web pages look simpler
You can change the appearance of pages (the style sheet) to make them easier to read. This is how to change the style sheet in the most commonly used browsers:
PCs
If you are using Internet Explorer, go to "Tools" on the top menu bar, select "Internet Options", then click on the "Accessibility" button. Click the top 3 boxes in the pop-up window. If you want to make your own style, you can do it by following the instructions in the lower half of the pop-up window.
Macs
If you are using Internet Explorer under the "Explorer" menu, select "Preferences", then "Web Browser" then "Web Content". In the "Page Content" area, clear the check boxes next to the items you don't want, including the style sheet.
If you're using Safari, go to the "Safari" menu, select "Preferences" then "Advanced". Other style sheets can be attached here.
If you are using any other browser, check its "Help" facility to find out how to do it.
Using portable Document Files ("PDFs")
Sometimes you may find items on the website that are provided in a "PDF" format. You'll need to have Adobe Reader® - Version 5 or above on your computer to read these documents. If you haven't, you can get it from the Adobe website at: www.adobe.com (opens in a new browser window)
However, if you want the item in HTML, we can provide it next to a PDF or, alternatively, give you a link to Adobe's website to convert the PDF to HTML.
Link to PDFs and other websites
Links to PDFs and other websites all open in a new browser window.
