Standards Australia
Southern Cross University recommends reading standards online where available.
Changes to the Digital Rights Management (DRM) method (as of October 2023) require changes to the security settings within Adobe Reader. Southern Cross University strongly recommends you DO NOT make the suggested changes due to the potential impact upon all documents used by, and activity within, Adobe Reader. SCU recommends reading the standards online. For standards that are only available for download, click the download button. More information can be found here on the vendor's website.
