Re: Problems with PDFs

Here's the difference.  If I click on the link (in the e-mail or on the web
page) the browser opens with the URL showing correctly in the window.  But
the screen remains blank.  If I a) Cut and paste the link that is now
showing in the browser into the Open dialog of Acrobat then the file is
displayed correctly. Or b) If I right click on the link and do "Save As" and
then select Open from the download monitor it again opens correctly.


I've been mulling over this one for a while ... and I can't think of
anything that would cause this.

What is serving the PDF?  Perhaps the mime type is not setup correctly
on the server?
