I spoke with her (she's 16 and not exactly a computer "geek"). She'd
tried to open it "from AOL" and said it looked like junk - had a lot of
codes and stuff. I think our browser (Netscape) would know what a .pdf
extension is and where to get the reader if it's not installed. I don't
know what the AOL browser is or if it "knows" what a pdf file is. Seems
kind of strange that it would go ahead and open a file when the
extension is something that it doesn't recognize.
Anyway, I was able to send her a rtf file of the Ahnantafel report - a
much bigger file than the PDF of same. So the problem is taken care of
for this time.
Thanks to those who answered my message.
