You cannot open .pdf's using OpenOffice (OOo). The standard Windows tool is Adobe for reading pdf's. This can be obtained from http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html It can take a long time to download OOo if you are on dial up. There are options to order CDROM's if that suits you better: http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom /paul -- Processing Key for cracking HD DVD's: 09 F9 11 02 9D 74 E3 5B D8 41 56 C5 63 56 88 C0 ----- Try Torpark; a small portable, open-source, built on Firefox browser that enables anonymous browsing.
