Words and pretty pictures on the web should be in HTML. If retaining
formatting is absolutely necessary, then there's always <spit> .PDF.

Replace your current page with this one:

http://www.webpak.net/~rescyou/bbq2/download.htm

Then go he

http://www.webpak.net/~rescyou/bbq2/download2.htm

and download the four .PDF versions of the Word docs. Upload them into
the same directory on your site that the Word docs are in.

Those .PDFs don't want to open in Mozilla or IE, but they open fine on
my local drive. Don't know why and don't have time to figure it out.
You might need to create new .PDFs from the Word docs with PDF995, a
free printer driver for making .PDFs (www.pdf995.com).
