Help
This page covers some common problems accessing content on the Sheffield First Partnership website.
If you can't find a solution to your problem or would like further help, then please contact us using the Online Customer Feedback Form.
Printing
Unfortunately, if you try to print off web pages you will probably find that the right-hand edge is missing. You can get around this problem by printing in landscape mode rather than portrait. We are actively working to provide a solution to this problem. Sorry for any inconvenience caused.
Downloading Documents
Most of the files made available on the site will be either Microsoft Office or pdf files. Free software is available to view all these. We have made these available for you at the bottom of this page.
It is our policy to give you an indication of the file size for downloadable items so that you can judge whether or not it will take a long time to download on your particular connection.
Searching
The site search operates on:
- page title
- page content
- page metadata keywords
- attachment names
- attachment summaries
To use the search facility please enter the term(s) that you wish to search for and click the arrow (or press enter on your keyboard). The search will find instances of any of your terms within the site so please choose carefully.
We are actively working on providing a more advanced search facility and will implement it as soon as we are confident that it is working correctly.
