Tips for viewing PDF documents
The majority of documents in CAL’s Download Centre are in portable document format (PDF). PDF documents include a zoom function which can make text appear larger or smaller, to suit the individual requirements of readers. To zoom in or out, use the ‘+’ or ‘-‘ buttons respectively, in your browser. You can also zoom in by holding ‘Control’ and pressing ‘+’ on your keyboard. Pressing ‘Control’ and ‘-‘ on your keyboard will zoom out.
Reading out loud
For people with vision impairments, PDFs can be read aloud by Adobe Reader 6 and later versions of this software. The document must first be saved to disk and then opened in Adobe Reader for this function to work. Then click View> Read Out Loud> Activate Read Out Loud and then once activated choose from one of the options in the Read Out Loud panel. Below are the keyboard shortcuts:
- Hold Control, Shift and Y to Activate Read Out Loud.
- Hold Control, Shift and V to Read This Page Only.
- Hold Control, Shift and B to Read to End of Document.
- Hold Control, Shift and C to Pause or Resume Reading.
- Hold Control, Shift and E to Stop Reading.
