All newsletters are PDF files, readable on Adobe Reader or some other software applications. Go to http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html to download it if for some reason you don't have it. The latest version is 8, but the files were created with version 6, so the newsletter should be readable on version 6 or probably earlier versions.
