Want to adjust the size of your document?

• Look for the "+" and "-" signs on the toolbar near the top of your screen. Click on the "+" sign to increase or the "-" sign to decrease the document size.
• Next to the "+" and "-" signs there is a white box displaying a percentage (e.g., 100%). To adjust the size of the document, click on the down arrow to the right of the box and select from the list of percentages, or select Fit Width, Actual Size, etc.

• Use the scroll bar on the far right side of your screen to move up and down through the document.
• Right-click anywhere in the document and select the Hand Tool.
  Hold the left mouse button down and push your mouse up or pull down to move through the document.

Interactive Forms
Most of the forms on the Brochures and Forms page are interactive; that is, you can fill them out online.

• You can use the Tab key on your keyboard to move forward to the next field and Shift+Tab to move back.
• After you have completed a form, we suggest that you print two copies — one to submit to LACERA and one for your records, as you cannot save the form with your data in it.

Downloading - saving documents
To save a copy of the document on your computer, click on the disk icon located on the toolbar on top of the page. (Note: You cannot save data typed into an interactive form.)
