In some cases there are several versions of the TPA in order to help you select the best version for your technology expertise and computer configuration. The "PDF" files you can download, read, and print copies for reference. The "Word" files are designed to type into tables cells for which you will need to have Microsoft Word for Windows 98 or Word for Mac 98 or newer. The "Text" files are text only that other word processing programs will open. Text files do not have tables in which to type responses so you will place responses in appropriate places in the document.
