Hi Joan, Pound to a penny the PDF is a scanned image, even though it may visually appear to be text. Sighted people who do not understand the technology often do this. George. From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Joan Muir Sent: 21 June 2007 21:43 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Empty PDF Document? Hi, Folks, I received an email with a PDF attachment. However, when I opened the document I got the message: Alert: empty document. Yet the attachment said 64 point something or other kb. How can this be? If someone would like to look at this I'd be happy to forward it to them as obviously I can't send it to the list. Best wishes, Joan. No virus found in this incoming message.
