New browser windows

In general, each link on this site opens in the existing browser window.

Font sizes

Because of the complex interactions between browser, platform and operating system, it is impossible to find a font size specification that looks the same under all circumstances and that can also be resized for users with visual impairment. Most browsers should resize fonts successfully on this web site, however we recommend the use of a browser that allows text resizing independent of the manner in which the font size is specified. These include Firefox (2+), Internet Explorer (6+), Chrome and Safari (4+) and Internet Explorer for Macintosh.

PDF file accessibility

We recommend people with disabilities who wish to access PDF format download the latest version of Adobe Reader.

Adobe Reader contains many capabilities specifically designed to make it easier for people with disabilities to read PDF files, regardless of whether the files have been optimised for accessibility.

For more information, including full instructions on downloading and using Adobe Reader, visit the Adobe Reader Accessibility web site.
