Information on file sizes, types and downloading:

* PowerPoint presentations are available as web presentations only. This speeds download and usage by breaking up the file. # The total size of the file is not downloaded at one time in this format. However, speed of operation will still be slow on a 56K link and images will be extremely slow in downloading. If you would like the actual PowerPoint file for any of the web presentations just email markrobrien@otrnet.com.au and request the file be emailed to you.

^ PDF files will generally be opened in the browser by Adobe Acrobat Reader plug in but may be downloaded and accessed from the users machine.

+ Files in html format open by simply clicking on the link. These files are small and open quickly, although printing a copy can result in a poorly formatted document.

Can't find what you want - due to size restrictions some presentations are not continuously available. If you want a copy of any presentation you have seen just email markrobrien@otrnet.com.au and request the file be emailed to you.
