Brings up a question: In my case (Firefox) most PDF show up right in the browser, some others randomly go the download path. What gives? It seems pretty much willy-nilly.

Same here. However, I have a partial fix for Firefox. See:
<http://www.pdfdownload.org>
It gives quite a bit of control over what to do with a PDF.

Also, in Firfox, make sure the default download action is to ask
what to do next, not dump it in the default download dumpster folder.

Tools -> Options -> Main -> Always ask me where to dump files.


I've got that checked. But it sometimes, maybe 5% of cases, decides to open in Acrobat and not in Firefox. That's usually when things crash since Acrobat is the SW that crashes the most here in the office, by far.


Thanks anyway, Jim, even if you ARE one step to the right of Attila the Hun {;-)

Then he'd have to be a lifetime NRA member :-)

Lifetime regular membership is $1,000. However, they offer a 65+
senior discount which reduces it to $375. Since regular membership is
$35/hr, if one is over 65, and plans on living past 75, then lifetime
membership might be a good investment.


But there will come a point where you can't hold the rifle steady anymore ;-)
