As this file [ available at:
http://faculty.bbc.edu/rdecker/documents/prin_prts.pdf ] is s .pdf file,
there is no question of "embedded fonts" or " dynamic fonts" as some
browsers refer to them. A .pdf file is actually a graphic file -- hence one
cannot do a search on the text. [ However, I see that the latest version of
the Adobe Acrobat reader v. does have a "search" item on the menu --- but
this relies on the compiler of the file to have included an index within
the .pdf file. ]
Another great advance with version 4.05 of Adobe ( for Windows at least )
is this:
>>accessible to the blind and vision impaired. Please see
http://access.adobe.com to download or for more information.>>
Rod Decker's file is nicely laid out -- ironically the parts, in a "normal"
font are actually marginally clearer than the 'present' which is in "bold".
