These files can be printed directly from Acrobat Reader. You do not need any of the Widgit Products to access these files, but you will need to have Adobe Acrobat installed.

The A5 booklets need to be printed and then cut in half to make the small books. They have been paginated so that you can print them double sided. Alternatively sort the pages into numerical order before stapling.
