Q: How can I order publications and/or videos?
A: You can order publications by mail, phone, fax, & email. See our How to Order page for instructions and a printable order form.
Q: Can I use my credit card
to order publications?
A: Yes, but not if you order via email. This method is not
secure, please do not send your credit card information via email.
Q: Every time I try to view
a PDF document on your site my computer freezes and/or it takes forever
for the entire document to show up!
A: There could be several reasons for this problem. (1) Some PDF
documents are too large for quick display (especially if you have a slow
connection). (2) There could also be a problem with the Acrobat Reader
plug-in in your browser. (3) Installing the most current Adobe
Acrobat Reader version may also help.
The easiest way around this
problem is to download the document to your hard drive.
To do that, right-click (or
click and hold if your mouse has only one button) on the link to the PDF
document. Then, once a menu pops up, select "Save Link As.."
(Netscape) or "Save Target As.." (Internet Explorer) and save
the PDF to your hard drive. Once it's saved just double-click on the file
and it should open up in Acrobat Reader.
Q: Why PDF?
A: PDF is an acronym
for Portable Document Format. It is a file format that allows publishers
to provide files to users in a common format. PDFs will display and print
properly on any platform that supports them. Agricultural Communications
publishes in PDF because it is the most common portable document format
available on the web. To view or print a PDF, you must have the Adobe
Acrobat Reader—a free software tool provided by Adobe Inc., the developers
of the PDF standard. You can download it from Adobe's web
site.
