How to use the NMHW 2005 Resource Pack

We have tried to make this Resource Pack as simple to navigate and use as possible. Each of the links in the menus contain a number of individual documents.  A summary of the contents of each of the main links  is given in the 'Contents' link.

To go back to the Home Page Introduction at any time, click on the Men's Health Week logo, or the mhfs logo at the top of the page

We have tried to make all the individual files as straightforward as possible in order to minimise the risk of incompatibility. For this reason, the design elements of the various files are less sophisticated than they would have been had we supplied them in printed form. 

File Formats

We have deliberately restricted ourselves to three file formats: pdf and htm files for the text documents and JPEG files for the logos and artwork. 

This year we are principally using pdf files. Most computers are configured to open pdf files but if you do not have the necessary software (Adobe Acrobat Reader) already on your machine, you can download it for free, in just a few minutes by going to: http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep.html 

Likewise, virtually all computers will read the JPEG files. You should also be able to edit them (change the size and colour and so on) through any standard image editing programme (such as Paint, Paint Shop Pro or Corel Draw). 

Printing

Given that most of the relevant documents that you may want to print will normally appear as pdf files, printing these documents is extremely simple to do by clicking on the print icon in the toolbar of the relevant document. While the actual pages of this website, can be easily printed by clicking on the link at the bottom of the relevant page.

You can also print a document by right-clicking on your mouse, when your cursor is anywhere within the document you want to print, and following the relevant instructions. Importantly, this will only print the document in which your cursor is situated.

Many documents have the organisational logos in their heading. Unless you particularly want the logos to appear in colour, don’t forget to set your printer to black and white before your print - this will save you a lot of time!

If you have difficulty in printing any of the documents that you need, please first see if you can obtain local help. However, if the problem persists, please ring Sarah MacMillan on 0141 550 7515 or email Sarah@mhfs.org.uk  outlining the documents you require, and we will post hard copies to you as soon as we can.

Copyright etc...

You are entirely welcome to use the NMHW artwork and logos in documents of your own (but not the mhfs logo). Please respect this freedom by not attaching them to materials that have controversial content. Likewise you are free to use sections of the text documents in local publications or indeed, to use the documents in their entirety (the best way to do the latter might be to replace the MHF logo in the top left hand corner with your local logo, leaving the NMHW logo where it is).

Remember that you can copy sections from the documents in the resource pack and paste them into documents of your own but you cannot change the documents on the resource pack itself.  If you wish to amend the resource pack documents to suit your own purpose, you need first to copy the document or text in question onto your own hard-drive.

We have made every effort to ensure that the contents of this resource pack are up-to-date and accurate. If you find content that you believe is misleading or wrong, please let us know by emailing any comments to: Sarah@mhfs.org.uk
