PDF Files

Hi All,

Now this may sound dumb, and i probably should know this, but to read stuff that someone has sent you in PDF form is it necessary to have certain software to read the documents.

When i click on a link that has PDF after it it just wont open, and tells me that the file is done at the bottom of the screen.

Thank You

Leon

Do you have Adobe Reader installed?

Leon, once you have downloaded Acrobat, if you want to create your own PDF's from any windows application download primo PDF which is a free print to PDF utility.

Leon, I took Phil's advice a long time ago and downloaded a copy of Primo PDF and have been using it ever since.
Thanks Phil, it's saved a lot of paper and fax calls since I use it to email my info in PDF format for work instead of printing and faxing.
