Slideshows in Internet Explorer (IE): If photos in Slideshows are blank or shrink to 'thumbnail' size, try the View > Refresh menu command -- or use a different browser like Firefox. A warning should appear to IE users on slideshow pages.

Font size: If text seems too large or too small, use your browser's View > Text/Zoom command: Firefox & Chrome: View > Zoom > Zoom In/Out; Safari: View > Make Text Bigger/Smaller; Internet Explorer: View > Text Size > Larger/Smaller

Reload current web page: If you think your web browser is not showing the latest information (it may have cached an older version), use your browser's View > Reload/Refresh command. Firefox: View > Reload; Chrome: View > Reload This Page; Safari: View > Reload Page; Internet Explorer: View > Refresh

Setting Home Page: If you would like your browser to open always to rvuuf.org, see Browser Home Page

PDF support -- via Adobe (Acrobat) Reader; or Mac OS X Preview -- is required to view the Newsletter and many other documents. You can usually view the PDF directly in your web browser, and optionally, download* it for later. On the iPad, besides viewing PDFs directly in the Safari web browser, you can download the file to read later in GoodReader, Apple iBooks or other viewer apps.

.doc: forms may be made available in Microsoft Word format (in addition to PDF) so that information can be typed into the document before printing or emailing. Note: we do not recommend the use of ".docx" (an incompatible and proprietary format; older versions/systems require a conversion tool which may not completely preserve layout and formatting, or a software upgrade which is expensive and confusing).

JavaScript support is required for much of this web site, including viewing of Slideshows.

Java support is required for interactive crossword puzzles.
(if Java is not installed/supported, puzzles are also available in PDF and .puz formats.)

Cookies should not be required in general, though they may be needed for those with rvuuf.org accounts.

Audio. No special audio support should be needed to listen to sermons (via our embedded player) in your browser. However, if you download* files for later listening, you will need appropriate player software on your computer.

Video. If we provide video capability in the future, it is highly likely that we will use standard, secure technology such as HTML5 (rather than Flash Player).

*Downloading files: right-click the file link (ctrl-click for Mac users) to display a pop-up menu containing a Save/Download command: Firefox & Chrome: Save Link As...; Safari: Download Linked File As...; Internet Explorer: Save Target As...

EPUB is an open electronic publishing (e-book) format. In the future, rvuuf.org may offer documents in this format for use on the iPad and other devices.
