Having Trouble Reading Your Downloaded Book?

The PDF file format used by my books is good for downloading and printing off text and pictures from the Internet. So, the 'book' is actually a file stored on your computer - often known as an 'e-book'. All you need is the free and easy-to-use Adobe Reader installed on your computer.

PDFs are designed for easy magnification of the print size if desired, for on-screen reading, and easy selection of pages to print out. When you do a print-out, the content is nicely formatted on each page. Unlike just trying to print straight from a website!

By securing a full printout in a simple binder you can make a handy addition to your collection of kite books. Make a start on your own kiting library today!

Stay tuned for more kite books in the near future...
