or fonts used to create the file."
Many of the House
documents available from the Clerks site are in PDF. To view these
documents, you will need to use a reader. One of several available, Acrobat
Reader®, can be downloaded from the
Adobe® Web site. Other readers are available from various shareware Web sites.
