To be of use the following pdf files have to be legible down to the individual dimensions so some of the files are around 10mb in size. They have been tested on most readers including Adobe and Foxit. If you use the Firefox web browser the default reader does not work well on these images – you can reset the default to Adobe or Foxit in Tools/Options/Applications.
