[WEB4LIB] opening pdf files

[Isabel Danforth]

All the pdf files were created from PageMaker.  I will check and see if 
versions were changed.

Also, I am using the 5.1 reader to view the files.

I did ftp the concert.pdf to my hard drive and that had no problem being 
opened in my Reader  5.1

Thanks for all the comments.
