pdf reader Question And Answer


How can I get Adobe Reader 8.0 to open up and display a PDF document?

Hello, Whenever I receive a PDF file via email that needs Adobe Reader in order to view, for some reason each time I double click on that attachment, it opens up using Windows Notepad. (I think my computer defaults to this program.) How can I change the settings so that my PC can open a PDF using the correct program and not Notepad? Thanks.

just open up adobe reader and then when your in open it from there
download the file on to your desktop then right-click and choose (open with) then you choose adobe acrobat reader and then choose it as ur default reader
right click the file select "open with" choose "select program to open with" look for acrobat in the list. if it's not there click browse and naviagate to the acrobat reader exe in the folder in which you installed the program after you selected from the list or through browse, check the box that says "always use this program for this type of file" (or something similar) and click ok
The file associates for PDF is wrong Go to any PDF file on your computer Right click on the PDF file and select "Open With..." from the menu Find and select the Adboe Reader Once selected, go to the bottom of the window and check the little box which says "Always use this program to open this type of file" Click OK Now when you try to open a PDF, it will use Adobe Reader instead of Notepad.
If all else fails you can also install this program as a backup... http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php It can also open PDF files and will hopefully fix the file associations.
