That's settings between your browser and the pdf plug-in. The default is to load the pdf into the app, not download it. Another soln is to download it with curl.

The hubble sized magnifying glass I'd need doesn't fit in my wallet. :( >used the snapshot tool and it printed each half of the page on 100% >landscape on letter size paper. Ya, &as Bruce suggested... Ok. I'm grabbing chunks now, pasting them into GraphicConverter, then printing them. They look good so far. sigh. pita. Tried to get the printed schedule directly from NJT... I was told they don't mail them out. Checked the train station - they no gots. The bins for them, glued to the ticket machines, are full of ancient trash. So it doesn't look like they ever gots. sigh. Gotta love these well-run quasi-government agencies. *grumble* Thx, - Dan. -- - Psychoceramic Emeritus; South Jersey, USA, Earth --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
