USING ADOBE OR PDF FILES
Many organizations, including our own - Video Tax News, and the Canadian and American governments publish information in PDF format. Here are some basics about these files.
General - .pdf files can be read by downloading the free Adobe Reader from the Adobe website.
For example: if you have Video Tax News issues 259 through 270 in .pdf format saved in a single file folder, you have the option of entering a phrase or word and searching all of these files at one time.
