old magazine article

I tried three times to download the pdf, but it failed every time. The download runs fine until it gets to somewhere around 300-350K when it suddenly says its complete. Needless to say, the resulting pdf cannot be displayed.i

I was able to download and view with version 5.0 of Adobe reader. I think the PDF was made with version 6. You may have an old version of Aobe Reader. Jeff

I was able to read it with version 4....maybe I should update....

Hey I've been looking for Lanterns to hang on my front porch for awhile now. Making a pair to go on the hooks I put up last year sounds like a good idea since I haven't been able to remember to water the flowers that the hooks were installed for.

You probably have a transparent web-cache upstream of you which is holding a truncated copy of the file. If you suffer Interent Exploder, try ctrl-f5 to attempt to force the cache to re-load.

Please READ my post - its nothing to do with Adobe Reader - I can download only about 350K of the 462K pdf, and at that point the download suddenly stops with the message that all 462K has been read. THAT is why the pdf cannot be displayed.

I've just retried and get the same problem. I've also tried the ctl+F5 trick, with no effect. Perhaps someone could email the pdf to me?

I was able to read it with 4.0, but the text block at the left center of the last page is AFU.

Could this too be an Adobe version issue?

Well ... I couldn't read it with either xpdf (unix) or Adobe Acrobat 4, so I downloaded Acrobat 5 (the latest available for Sun unix boxen at present), and that did not work either.

The message from Acrobat 5 is:

"There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged, and could not be repaired."

Enjoy, DoN.
