Hi :) That is downright weird. My ex-boss often used to have troubles using Adobe Pdf-reader to open Pdfs he'd downloaded with Internet Explorer or that were in his Outlook emails. Switching either variable - such as still using Adobe Pdf reader but downloading the file using Firefox, or Chrome

Yes, I did try renaming the user-profile, to no effect. However, last night I downloaded the latest version of Firefox (60.0.2) and the problem seems to have gone away. I have not yet tried extensive testing, but in about 8 tries have not yet gotten a failure. This one baffles me. Bob

Hi. Is this then a problem of Ctl-C not working in Firefox. If you open notepad along with writer and Ctl-V in Firefox, Ctl-C writer, Ctl-C notepad, does paste in notepad work while not in writer. It seems hard to get this issue reproducible. Steve On 07/06/18 05:25, Robert M McClure wrote: I
