Decoding PDF Files from Internet
Hi Anney,
although this is a group to help with Microsoft Word problems, not Adobe PDF ones, let me fathom a guess what your problem is. People who create Adobe PDF files can restrict what can be done with them. If you open the document with your Adobe PDF reader and go to the File Menu, Document properties and then the security tab, you'll see everything you are allowed to do with the file (the menu location is with Adobe Reader 7). The person who made the PDF e.g. can prevent you from printing it, or copying stuff out of it and so on. I think it is also possible to prevent you from saving a copy. There isn't really any way around these restrictions except making screenshots (which is only a viable option if you are looking for a tiny part of the document, e.g. one figure. However, you'd probably violate the copyright on the pdf file doing this). If you need to be able to print it, your best bet is to contact whoever created the PDF and see if you can't get a pdf that you can print, probably by paying a fee.

You can get around the PDF security issues by using one of the Acrobat
clones: at least some of them simply ignore these settings (as is acknowledged by Adobe somewhere in the security settings dialog). As for the print problem -- could be anything. Ironically, PDFs created using an Acrobat clone is a common cause. Try using Distiller. Try saving the PDF as a Word document and printing that. "Anney" wrote in message ... Hie all..
