To download the latest FREE version of Adobe Reader, go to http://get.adobe.com/reader. You must know your operating system version (also called platform) and your Internet connection speed (dial-up or broadband). This free software is required for many other Web sites and is well worth the effort of installing in order to access our materials for your classroom.
Older versions of Adobe Reader, such as 3.0, have problems with pages created by newer versions of Adobe Acrobat. Go to http://get.adobe.com/reader and download the latest version of Adobe Reader. If you continue to have this problem, you may need to refresh the page or clear your cache file to remove this error from your computer.
In the Print window of Adobe Reader, click on "Advanced" and then check the box next to "Print as image." If this does not solve the problem, download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader.
When you click the print link, Adobe Reader should open the file in your browser. If you are asked where to save the file, it means your browser does not recognize the .pdf extension and will not open it with Adobe Reader. Check to see whether Adobe Reader is actually installed. If it is not installed, download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader.
You either have a missing plug-in file in your browser or you don't have Reader installed. Your computer does not associate the .pdf extension with Adobe Reader, and it may have asked you to choose an application. If you select an application other than Adobe Reader, your computer will make the incorrect association until you change it to the proper program. The best way to solve this is to download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader. Adobe's installation process sets up Reader for use in your browser and also sets your computer's file association correctly.
If you have Adobe Reader installed, the problem is with the plug-in file that connects the program to your browser. Adobe's support site http://www.adobe.com/support/reader) has information on the top issues with Adobe Reader. If you are still having problems with the plug-in file, download and install the latest version of Adobe Reader. Adobe's installation process takes care of the plug-in file.
Click "Reload" or "Refresh" in your browser and then wait. If you still cannot access the page, make sure you can open other .pdf files. If you can open other files, then the problem page may be that the form or reproducible is a larger file and needs more time to download.
The red X means the browser can't open .pdf files, which means a plug-in file is not in the right place. The simplest solution is to install the latest version of Adobe Reader. The new installation takes care of the plug-in. For more information, go to http://www.adobe.com/support/reader.
