Please note: All course materials are provided in PDF format. If you cannot print out PDF format on your machine at home, please download the Adobe Acrobat PDF viewer. This program is available free at this site. If you are using the Unix machines on campus under X Windows, then you should be able to handle PDF files without additional software by using acroread. As far as I know, all the PCs in the campus labs have Adobe Acrobat installed.
