I'd like to piggyback on this a little bit. Sometimes when I'm reading a .pdf, the magnifier / zoom buttons (or zoom function) don't work. (I think I'm using kpdf by default, but I'm not at that machine at the moment.) Seems to be a file based thing, some files work, some don't. Is there anything I can do to "force" zoom to work? (Change something in the .pdf file??) Randy Kramer Paul Johnson wrote: ---<good stuff snipped>---
