Viewing the
MUTCD
If you have difficulty viewing the MUTCD sections (in PDF format),
you may need to download and install new software. For best results
we recommend Netscape
Navigator, version 4 or higher, Internet
Explorer, version 4 or higher, and Adobe
Acrobat Reader, version 4.
Earlier editions of the MUTCD are available in PDF format only on this website. Certain Chapters of the MUTCD Millennium Edition (those affected by Revision No. 1 changes) may be viewed in HTML format, in addition to PDF format. HTML formatted chapters are accessible to individuals with disabilities,
per Section
508 of the Rehabilitation Act.
Printing the MUTCD
The manual is set up for double-sided, offset printing to be placed
in a three-ring binder. The first 5 pages include a spine, title page,
cover page, etc. If you are having trouble printing the MUTCD, you
may need to adjust settings in "File > Page Setup" menu,
in Adobe Acrobat. A high-grade ink-jet or laser printer is recommended
for a quality hard copy.
Certain chapters and sections of the MUTCD have very large file
sizes due to the large page count, number of illustrations, or both,
contained within (example, 2003 Edition Section 6H, 98 pages with
47 illustrations). These large files can present problems when printing,
depending on the printer used. This is often due to the amount of
memory within the printer itself, which is often minimal, especially
with the printers sold through office supply outlets. If the printer
will not print the file, or prints it with errors, sending the file
to the printer in smaller sections (10-20 pages at a time) often
solves the problem.
If you are still experiencing difficulties after making the suggested
adjustments, please submit your problem on the Technical
Feedback Page, and you will receive a reply.
