Dear Listers,

I've just subscribed to a professional journal on the Web. The website gives me access to regular issues of a bulletin in PDF format. I can find the link which is the title of the current issue. I click on it with VO+spacebar and then I hit a problem. I get a message from Safari that it cannot find an apropriate PDF reader to open the page. I am presented with a dialogue from which to choose a compatible reader but I cannot find it in the list applications. In my case, I use Preview but I cannot see it in the dialogue that Safari offers me. And yet, Preview is definitely there in my list of Applications folder. Ideally, I don't really want to open the file on the web, I ideally want to download it into a folder on my computer. However, clicking on the title of the bulletin does not give me an option to download the PDF file. On the windows side, I can right click on the title in IE6 and choose save target as... But in Safari, I don't know how to do it. Can anyone give me some clues as to how to achieve my purpose? Why doesn't safari recognise Preview as a legitimate PDF reader?

Many thanks in advance.

Simon
