What to do when PDF files do not open correctly or when your browser displays a blank white screen after trying to open the PDF file...
If the Adobe Acrobat viewer doesn't display PDF files inside your Web browser as expected, try the latest version of the Acrobat viewer. Some PDFs use security features that may not run in older versions.

If you feel you have the current version on your computer and you are still having problems, you can:

  • try to disable "view in browser" feature;
  • try to download PDF to hard drive;
  • check your security options (If you use Internet Explorer 5.x, make sure that its security options recognize the Acrobat Control);
  • make sure you are looking at the correct window;
  • or try viewing another PDF from a different web server.
