PDF woes

[Mike Reinehr]

It must be something to do with your setup. I have no problem printing, here.

I'm not sure what you call them, but I'm seeing increasing numbers of these 
"fill-in-form" type of pdf files. In general, you can print the form, 
completed or otherwise, but you only can save the basic un-edited file. I get 
a warning when I attempt to save the file, that only the basic file will be 
saved, not the changes, and that I must purchase Adobe Acrobat in order to 
save an edited file.

HTH.
