Document View—Accounting Standards Full TextAccounting standards are presented in a split-screen format to help you easily navigate within larger documents and to help you quickly locate keyword hits within the document. Once you've opened a full text view of accounting standards documents, you have several options for working with them. Accounting standards documents can display the entire document, sections of the document, or single paragraphs. When the document first opens, only the first section of the document will be loaded. Use the Table of Contents to open other document sections. You can also print, email or review the abstract of the document.
Use the Table of ContentsWhen the document opens, the Table of Contents pane will display, showing the major document sections. The section currently loaded in the right pane will be indicated in the Table of Contents. Expand [+] and contract [-] the Table of Contents to find the section or paragraph you wish to view. Click a section or a paragraph to view it in the right pane. The numbers listed to the left of each Table of Contents entry indicate the number of keyword hits found in that section or paragraph. You can use the Table of Contents links to quickly view these sections of the document. From the Keywords in Context view, click the Table of Contents tab to return to the Table of Contents view. Use Keywords in ContextClick on the Keywords in Context tab to see a list of phrases where keyword search terms occur. Click on the title of a paragraph or section to view it in the right pane.

Click on links within the Table of Contents to open other sections of the current document in the right pane. To view the entire document at once, click the document title at the top of the Table of Contents. It may take a moment for the whole document to load.

Link to a Related DocumentThe title and paragraph numbers of other standards are frequently referenced within the text of standards documents. When these references are linked, you may open that paragraph or document directly by clicking on the link. You will need to use your browser’s back button to return to the last page you were viewing. Grayed out (superseded) textIf a paragraph, section or document has a grey background, it means this section of the document has been superseded by another standard or document and should not be considered authoritative. The specific document sections which replace it will usually be referenced at the beginning of the grey section as well as in the Status section of the document. View a Document in a Different FormatTo see the document you're currently reading in a different format, choose the format you want from the document format list on the right side of the screen. Print a DocumentTo print the text you're currently viewing, click the Print button to the right of the title. To print the shaded background for superseded text, your browser preferences must be set to print background colors and images. If you want to print citations or summaries for more than one document, you can print from the Marked List page. Mark a DocumentThe Marked List is useful for keeping track of details from your searches during your ProQuest session. It lets you collect documents of interest into a list that you can later review, print, email, or export as a bibliography. To add a document to your Marked List, check the Mark Document checkbox.
