Are you looking for this?

Next time, just try the "Help" dropdown menu or link at the top of the screen to your right.

Or just visit our Technical Issues Forum.

Also, if you post them back here (so long as it isn't a boatload), we'll happily spell them out for you.

Welcome to FT, BadSchnauzer!

Another thing to consider is that some acronyms are specific to an individual program or forum.
