downloaded forms from the internet are not correct
When I download a form from the internet in "Ancestry.com" in Microsoft Word,
it comes up with a box that says "File Conversion - anchart" Text Encoding Windows Default MS-DOS Other encoding then the body when the form is supposed to be has numbers, letters and symbols all jumbled together. How do I fix Word so I can get the correct download? |

Can you give us a URL? Perhaps it's not your computer but their form.

The download form button takes you to:
http://c.ancestry.com/pdf/trees/charts/anchart.pdf This isn't a Word document and I'm surprised that Word even tried. You need Adobe Acrobat Reader which you can download for free.

Thank you. I finally saw where I needed Adobe Acrobat Reader and have
downloaded it and can pull up the form. Somehow it had gotten deleted from my computer.
