--To get Adobe Acrobat Reader (free) to view pdf files go
Here.
--Because I use frames:
-IE-Rightclick on link then "Save Target As...."
-Netscape just click on the link, or right click on it and "Open in
New Frame."
--Replace XX's in entry forms (left there to hold formatting) with appropriate data,
note that some printers might make the 1st page go to the 2nd page so you
may need to tweak one of the table cells a bit smaller.
--If a box is prechecked in an entry form(AKC# and birth country), just drag an empty box
to an X'ed box and vice versa.
Please let me know if you have problems with any of these.
