Are all PDF documents created equal, and equally openable? I have had problems elsewhere with folks telling me they could not open pdfs I had sent out. Some could, some could not. Was the original file created by Adobe's application or by an app that "saved it as a PDF." Is total size the issue to your user's Adobe reader?
Anyone else had or heard of such or similar?
