Downloading the On-Line Edition

On-line editions of all issues of Summer Times may be downloaded here. 

After editing and publishing thirteen excellent issues (November 1999 to November 2005), David Fowler finally took a well-deserved break. Until a new editor was found, Summer Times was replaced by a semi-annual newsletter in A4 format.  For three issues (May and November 2006, and May 2007), there was no on-line edition of the newsletter. However, they were subsequently recast in A5 format, with the same covers (minus advertising) as the full versions of Summer Times, and can now be retrieved here.

Peter Newham took over as the Summer Times editor, starting with the November 2007 issue. This is a joint effort with David Fowler, who continues to lend his experience and expertise to the effort.

You may open (in place) or download Summer Times by clicking on the date of the issue you want. If you want to download the file and your browser doesn't normally prompt you to choose between downloading and opening in place, click the right mouse button. Otherwise, click the left button.

If you decide to open the file in place, it will be displayed in a new window. Either downloading or opening the file may take as much as ten minutes (depending on your connection speed) or, for a DSL or broadband connection, just a few seconds.

Dial-up users should note that the the November 2001, the May and November 2002, and the November 2003 issues are over 3 megabytes each, so please be patient.

Starting with the  November 2000 issue, all on-line editions are formatted for A5 paper. If you decide to print any of them, we recommend 2-up printing, landscape mode, on A4 paper. (We apologise for the fact that most of the even page numbers of the May 2001 Edition are partially or totally obscured.)

Although costs dictate that the printed edition be black and white only, all on-line editions since November 2001 contain colour photographs. Please note that the latest ones require Adobe Acrobat 5.0 or later.

If you have any trouble downloading or printing your copy, just click on the bottle on the left and give us a brief description of the problem.

We use Adobe's portable document format (PDF) for the downloadable files. To view or print PDF files, you will need Adobe Reader (formerly called Acrobat Reader). If you don't already have it, you may download the latest version (which we recommend) by clicking on the Get Adobe Reader link, below.
