This is our first catalogue exclusively available as a PDF document for
Adobe's ACROBAT READER
(*). Below you will find two links to open: ** (1) the catalogue **, and ** (2) the separate price list **, - each at a time. Once the document has opened, you may immediately view it, save it on your computer for offline viewing, or maybe print it out. A few remarks on opening, downloading, and printing the documents: The catalogue's file size is about 6 MB, which is a compromise between upload time and picture quality; the document opens immediately after you clicked on the link below, in a separate frame of your browser. It may take a few moments, however, until all pages are fully loaded. You may then save the catalogue on your computer. For offline viewing you need Adobe's Acrobat Reader. For a first view of the catalogue we suggest to enable Acrobat Reader's 'DOUBLE PAGE VIEW', so that by zooming out you will see two catalgue pages, as in an open book, which allows you to get a full view of those triptychs which spread over two pages. Else, for reading text and viewing pictures it is best to zoom into the page again. We realized that the various versions of the reader work differently. If you wish to view selected pictures at a larger scale and maybe at a better resolution, we would be pleased to send them to you by e-mail on request. You may want to print out the catalogue using the "DUPLEX / print on both sides" function of your printer, and so have your own hardcopy. The catalogue size is 21 x 21 cms (8.27in by 8.27 in.). - A printed and bound version may be available at a later date. (1) OPEN CATALOGUE (2) OPEN PRICE LIST If you have problems with the download or the PDF catalogue, please do not hesitate to contact us. For now, we hope you will enjoy our new presentation. Questions and suggestions are welcome. (*) Most computers today come with a pre-installed version of this reader. However, if yours is not, you may downlad the latest version here:  . |
