Links in the PDF article version are coloured to improve screen readability and navigation. The links appear in pale grey when printing the document monochrome. In this case please use the PDF version optimized for black&white printout instead.

Some problems are reported when printing PDF documents from Acrobat Reader under Windows, especially for machines using PCL printer drivers instead of PostScript drivers. PCL (Printer Control Language) is the language of LaserJets and DeskJets (both produced by Hewlett Packard) and compatible laser printers, which are often referred to as non-PostScript printers. For a comprehensive troubleshooting guide for PDF printing issues, please refer to the Adobe Support Knowledgebase.

If the printed document happens to contain corrupted equations or text passages, it may help to choose "Postscript Level 1" instead of "Postscript Level 2" in printer options when printing from Acrobat Reader 4.0 or 5.0 under Windows.

WINDOWS (WinZip) Users:

1. Download the article. Please, note that WinZip is attempting to put all files into a single directory when it is extracting files automatically. But to get the article working the internal directory structure needs to be preserved.
2. Extract the compressed html archive with the option "USE FOLDER NAMES" checkmarked in the "Extract" dialogue box of WinZip. Then the article content is extracted into a directory called <pubNo>/, including a subdirectory <pubNo>/images.
3. To start the article open <pubNo>/index.html (since 2012: fulltext.html).

UNIX/LINUX Users:

1. Download the article.
2. Extract it using tar -xvzf <pubNo>.html.tar.gz or unzip <pubNo>.html.zip. The files are extracted into a subdirectory <pubNo>/, including a subdirectory <pubNo>/images.
3. To start the article open <pubNo>/index.html (since 2012: fulltext.html).

Other Software:

In any case it is important to preserve the internal directory structure of the HTML archive. Most programs allow for the preservation of directory trees, but you need to check whether it is by default or if it is a user-declared option only.
