Hi Adam and other folks, Tks for your advice.
I have Acrobat Reader, Xpdf-viewer and xpdf-3.00-3.4 running on FC2. My problem is unable to get them evoked on the browser, Mozilla 1.7.3. I have "Control Center" setup on "File Associates" to evoke pdf files with them. IIRC, Mozilla is not controlled with "Control Center" However I could not discover how to make change on "Preference" linking pdf to them. Please advise. TIA B.R. Stephen --- "Adam K.
