Safe the .pdf file to My Document or wherever. After downloading - right click the file - choose open with - choose acrobat reader.

Answer 4

PDF files are Adobe. Tell the computer to open the file with Adobe.



If you had 2007, Office 2007 will open it.

Answer 5

Program conflict.Make sure you have all the office patches and you WILL need software authentication to do this.

You can also try re-running Adobe 6.0 and make office your default program for viewing.
