tranquillize Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Thanks, i downloaded it without issue. Some of the other folks may be having issues with reading PDF's in their web browsers, or issues with their acrobat program. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spirit47 Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Hi George, download 132 kb than finished, 3 times the same...Filesize shown in Firefox downloader correctly, 7,2 Mb, than Acrobat reader says file is corrupted. Normal I hve no problems with downloading... Have a nice day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaithai Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Downloaded fine for me. At first I saw the "gray screen" but I also saw a "file loading" bar" behind it. It took several minutes to download (even at DSL speeds) because the file is large. When it finished I could open in Acrobat with no problem.

NamSod Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 "The Phuket Gazette has entered the booming online forum sweepstakes by signing a partnership agreement with ThaiVisa.com, Thailand's largest English-language web board. The agreement has resulted in the birth of the Phuket Gazette/Thai Visa Forum, a collection of thousands of pages of reader knowledge and observations on just about every aspect of life in Phuket."

JetsetBkk Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 hi uploads for me fine and i save 25 THB !... Downloads OK for me. [Or "uploads", whichever way you're looking at it. ] If only you'd announced this before Saturday, George, I could've saved 25 baht! Only joking - I always get the paper version anyway.

sbk Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 make sure you have a PDF reader installed, if you aren't a big fan of Adobe (huge file size for one) check out foxit reader. If you have issues downloading be sure to post what browser you are using, what OS, and what PDF reader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggomaniac Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 i get an error when i try to open it. im on a new mac... It might be as simple as not having Adobe Acrobat installed on your MAC. [a message in the title bar should have said about installing it] if it is more complicated, adobe has a great forum I think this is one is talking about movies, but you can get your answer here. http://forums.adobe.com/thread/285581 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tywais Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 Adobe Acrobat for the different platforms can be downloaded from here > Adobe Reader also Foxit Reader For Mac users, Safari has pdf reader built in to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tommaster Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 ...no problem on my old mac powerbook G4. getting the grey screen means download has not finished or been aborted. retry and watch for progress in download window (to view press option command L). you do not need acrobat reader on a mac. preview works fine with almost any pdf. just double click the file. good luck!

risky11 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 Thank you George for bringing us this new value added feature to our free Thai Visa Forum membership. Well done! As I read my downloaded copy, I was saddened/shocked to see the 1/4 page add for the HVP vaccine to prevent cervical cancer. The dangerous and controversial vaccine is called Gardasil. Here is just one of many articles available online... http://articles.mercola.com/sites/articles...s-unproven.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
