Re: OT Adobe reader
Ok, try as i might i cannot get a pdf to load in FF version 11. So i'm now want to up load my extended bookmarks to Safari, which will open the pdf's, but, every thing i search for this tells me to open bookmarks in FF and click on Organize book marks. I do not see this command at all. I dread having to hand bomb 100 or so book marks one at a time.

Any ideas. I prefer Firefox over safari. i am on a Mac, but i don't use Adobe's PDF plug-in in the browser — i consider it a security risk, so i only run Adobe Reader manually when necessary; i use the built-in (non-Adobe) PDF capabilities within Safari which are good enough 95% of the time i use FireFox now and then, but rarely for PDFs; here's a doco that might help though: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/Using%20the%20Adobe%20Reader%20plugin%20with%20Firefox -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.

I have the same problem on my laptop. I just download the PDF and open it. It's been doing that for a couple versions of Reader, but I can't be bothered to work to hard to find the problem.
