Hi guys,

Unless I'm missing something, I think I can safely add that you shouldn't 
have to open Adobe Reader or Acrobat first in order to read a .pdf file with 
it. If a copy of the program is on your computer, it should simply launch 
when you click on the .pdf file. That's the way it always works for me, 
anyway.

Hi Claudia:

Have you tried saving the document as text after first opening acrobat
reader then the pdf document?  That's how I've got around that problem.
Send me a message if you need help.

Regards, Liz Wade

Subject: Reading PDF Documents!

Hello,

I have difficulty reading PDF documents.  When I try to open a document, I
am told that the document is being formatted, but nothing ever happens.
I'm using JFW 7.10 with Windows XP Pro.
Any ideas or suggestions, as I need to read a PDF document, as part of an
exam I need to take!

Claudia
