How do I open British Standards PDF documents?

 

 

 

There are different ways to view documents from British Standards Online (BSOL). Although documents can be accessed in different ways, the content remains the same.

To read documents online click on the Quick View PDF icon. This is currently the only way to view BSOL documents on campus.

If you want to download BSOL PDF documents, you need to have the FileOpen plugin installed.

This can only be downloaded onto personal devices. You can download FileOpen here.

Once you have the FileOpen plugin installed when you find the Standard you want to read follow these steps:

  1. Click on Download PDF. 
  2. Find the downloaded file in your devices Downloads folder.
  3. On the file, right click, select Open With and select Adobe Acrobat Reader.

For further information on FileOpen see the British Standards site
