Default Viewing a .pdf

I have a black Q. When opening a .pdf file I am only presented with, "if there are pictures in the pdf you will not see them" and so I just get the text.

Is the the way Q's present .pdf's OR I'm I not doing something correct?

Thank you!

Tim

i even downloaded and ran docs to go and found it still did the same thing

if you want a great PDF program look for Clearvue PDF at www.handango.com

the problem is that they dont even show up in microsoft outlook. i mean i get the little paper clip that shows an attatchment but when i click on it it just a bunch of misc text (like script)

i use the same service with outlook express and dont have any problems but you cant sync express only microsoft outlook. i dont know if the .pds extension is blocked by ms outlook or what.

so you download the message and open the pdf and its all misc text

not sure why it would do that...

well thats weird i just decided to try it again and now it work fine.

now one more question. when i look at my email on the Q i go to show attatchment and it says the attatchment will be downloaded on the next sync. is there a setting where it will automatically download the file without the extra step. that way when i get up in the morning i plug it in to the puter and boom everything is there and ready to go.

odd indeed!

unfortunately not
it wont allow that with out your approval so to speak (download on next sync) but what you can do is hit 'download' then send/receive so you get it right then
