May 03, 2007 18:23:25 Quick question- I noticed the Savage Coast PDF files that Shawn put up on the Vaults recently (March of this year). Has anyone else tried to open them? I just tried today at work, and I got a "bad encrypt" notice and they wouldn't open. It may just be my work computer (I'll try again at home in a bit), but I was wondering if anyone else has had the same problems?

It's the version of Acrobat you're using -- these PDFs won't work on old versions of Acrobat, due to some encryption features that are interpreted oddly.

Looking at the document properties they're only openable by version 7 of Acrobat Reader and later. Should I see if the author can make them accessible in an earlier version?

I'd certainly be in favor.

should version 6 be OK, or go before that?

I think Acrobat 6 produces PDF 1.5, which should be fully understood by most readers.
