Good point, Avital. Either seeing or downloading a PDF can take a while because of the size of the file, but at least with downloading & saving it most systems show a progress box so you know that something is getting done. In contrast, opening a PDF in a new browser window may or may not show download progress depending on whether the browser gets enough of the beginning of the file to open it before download is complete.
Either way one gets the PDF, it would still help some to do the download during a time when Internet usage from the US is lighter since the file is coming from Arizona. Thanks for the clarification.

I generally prefer to right-click the link and choose "Save", rather than trying to read the PDF in the browser because it can be extremely slow in appearing. The site itself, with the list of names, renders very quickly because it's only text with a graphic background, but large PDFs can take forever.
