    The Exhibits

    Many exhibits will fill more than a single page of your screen, therefore you will need to scroll down with your mouse or press your Page Down (PgDn) key to ensure you view all of the exhibitor’s contribution. Links to return to the higher level menu may be found at the top and bottom of every exhibit.

    On occasion, it may be necessary to refresh a page with the latest version. For Microsoft Edge or Google Chrome for example, press either Ctrl+R or Ctrl+Shift+R, otherwise refer to the Help topics for your preferred Internet browser.

    Some browsers may not open the PDF Exhibitor notes in a new window and instead will download the document into the ‘download’ folder of the PC. This may require the installation of a Plug-in or Add-in for your browser. If so, visit https://pdf.wondershare.com/pdf-knowledge/view-pdf-in-browser.html for PDF support for your browser. Alternatively, you will need to open the downloaded PDF in Acrobat Reader which, if required, can be downloaded and installed from https://get2.adobe.com/uk/reader/.
