Maass' Ipsc Loads Lists And Adobe Reader

[jmaass]

There have been some reports of problems reading the IPSC Loads Lists from my web site.

I recently upgraded from Adobe Acrobat 5 to version 6. With that came a backwards compatibility problem for those using Adobe Reader or Acrobat versions 4 or earlier. My documents won't be the only one: if you have an old Adobe Reader or plug-in, you should seriously consider upgrading (free) to a newer version at http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.

There is a compatibility setting that allows generating new documents compatible with Adobe version 4, and I've re-generated the .38 Super and .40S&W IPSC Loads Lists to be so compatible. Hopefully this will solve viewing problems for some.

I'll take this opportunity to remind everyone to grab the IPSC Loads Lists only from my web site at Maass' IPSC Resources.

Over the years, other folks have, either at my request or on their own, hosted copies of the IPSC Loads Lists on other web sites. Once I established my own web page to allow people to download the Lists, there was no longer any reason to have multiple sources! The only guarenteeed current versions are on my site.

Some of the very out-of-date lists (some as old as 1998) I found with Google:

http://www.gunmuse.com/manuals/Reloading/IPSC40SWLoads.pdf

If you are the webmaster of any of these sites, please remove the old lists!

Everyone is welcome to link to the IPSC Loads List page on their web page. Because the exact page URL may change, I'd prefer the links go to Maass' IPSC Resources page at http://home.columbus.rr.com/jmaass/index.html.
