| Other file formats not listed here are generally not supported. If your file is in a format not accepted by Council, you will need to convert or export your file into one of the supported formats. Failing to convert your file may result in Council being unable to action your email in a timely manner.
You may be able to install software that 'prints' your document to a file. Such software may take the print information and instead of sending it to a printer, it will typically export that information to an Acrobat PDF file. Examples of such software include the full version of Adobe Acrobat, PDFCreator, doPDF and PDF995. This method is recommended for CAD or desktop publishing type files. | |
