Before the result is released to the public, you must send a TPC Summary Alert email to the membership. Create a TPC Summary Alert email with following details for each result:
- Test sponsors must attach an Adobe Acrobat pdf file of their Executive Summary to the alert. The maximum allowable size of the pdf file is 500 KB.
- For those of you unfamiliar with Adobe Acrobat, you can go to
Adobe to find out more information and to order the product. Once you have installed Acrobat on your system, you can do a "SAVE AS" and save just about any file as an Adobe Acrobat pdf file. Saving it to pdf also shrinks the file size considerably, and therefore you shouldn't have any problem delivering Executive Summary pdf files under 500 KB.
