The Adobe Reader is free software and probably a good thing to have on your computer. The software to create "pdf" documents is another matter. It for sale and pricey, too.

The old firing chart with RDP and square are on display...probably just for our benefit to remind us of our time in service...ie, the "old days". And, yes...the "check chart" has been abolished.
