Each browser you use to view the web may have different ways in which to increase the font size on the browser. Typically you can hold down the CTRL Key (or Command Key on a Mac) and press the plus key (+). By doing this you will increase the size of the font in your browser. To reverse or to make smaller you follow the same except using the minus sign (-) to make smaller. If this does not work, you may be using an older browser. You can view the following Web Accessibility Initiative Site (https://www.w3.org/WAI/changedesign.html) to learn how to change your font size in older browsers.

Some of our content may include Adobe PDF documents. As not all browsers are equip with a PDF installed by default, it may be necessary to download a PDF Viewer. If you have any trouble accessing our PDF documents you can download a PDF Viewer by downloading the Adobe Acrobat Reader (https://get.adobe.com/reader/) It costs nothing to download. Just ensure you uncheck the optional offer to install McAfee Security Scan as this is not necessary to run the program.
