Thanks, Mark. I'm being told that they are getting a file corrupted error. I
only have Adobe Reader 9 and it works fine in that. I haven't had a chance
to find somewhere where I can test the other versions myself. I'm going to
try using your setPdfVersion code and see if that helps. I appreciate your
help.
