pdf document viewer problem in espacenet

["Michael Fothergill" <mikef20000@hotmail.com>]

Dear Debianists

I have been searching on the espace patent web site.  You can get the 
original patent document from the site as a pdf file.

I think its unrestricted access here folks.

It was in the past.

But if you search for a patent and then try to download the pdf file it 
starts to do it and then says the pdf file is locked and asks for a 
password.

Weird

Could it be it doesn't like the document viewer (not Acrobat that seems to 
expect) in free debian Etch ?

An original pdf file should be able to be got here:
http://v3.espacenet.com/origdoc?DB=EPODOC&IDX=WO2007047206&F=0&QPN=WO2007047206

The other way to get one is to go to the espacenet.com site and do any old 
patent search and then pick any patent that is not Japanese and then go for 
the original document in there.


It should be a pdf file.

And I should be able to read it.

The USPTO site has a way to see the original images but you need some weird 
tiff plugin that iceweasel scored a blank on.....



Comments appreciated.
