PDF - Portable document files
The PDF format is the easiest format in which to read the data, but it does not allow the data to be analysed or sorted. If you wish to do this, then you should use the CSV format, which allows you to put the data into a spreadsheet.

CSV - Comma separated values
Note that the CSV format uses a standard column width, so not all entries may be intially completely visible (e.g. to adjust this, select all columns and use the format autofit column selection option in MS Excel). To save the file to enable you to adjust it 'right-click' the link and select the option 'save target as'.
