Downloading a PDF article

Clarifications

Or are you stuck at the Newsletter?

Most of the TR emails have clickable links printed in BLUE. Clicking on the article title (in Blue) will take you to the TR page itself.

Usually the PDF will be marked for download. If it is not, you could try opening the PDF online, then once it is [u]fully loaded[/u] you can SAVE it as you would any other file that you opened on your own desktop.

Perhaps if you could post back with the link for the article in question, we could guide you more accurately. :)

It's kind of tough to tell you where to find it. ;)

If you are on the download page, and not the article page (if available). If you are on an article page, there should be a link saying "This article is also available as a PDF download". Click on that.

To the Article all you need do is left click on the Blue Headline in the News Letter and that will open a Web Browser with the Article.

If you are in the Article there is some Blue Writing that says something like [b]Available as a PDF Download[/b] which you can click on to go to the Download Site.

Where you then click on the Blue Download Button or if that fails to open a new page on the Blue writing that says Click here if a New Web Page doesn't open.

If you go here it is a TR Article about Back track as I don't know which article you where looking at and click on the blue writing within the text that reads [b]Back Track[/b] or [b]download page[/b] and click on these they take you to the download site of the application being discussed here or the Main Web Site depending on which link you click on. Where the Blue writing says [b]Get the PDF Version now[/b] is where you click to go to the download site of the PDF File.

And where the blue writing says [b]Automatically sign up today[/b] is where you click to sign up to this newsletter.

You need to turn off any Pop Up Blockers that you have running to allow new Browser Pages to open.

I have tried everything but I can NOT find the link or way to download the article I wanted in the PDF format. I get to the correct screen, I'm sure but then there is nothing there to start a download or a way save the file.

Am I the only one with this issue? I did email TR but the one response I received was no help at all.

BTW, I did THIS several times::"This article is also available as a PDF download". Click on that."

The only thing I haven't tried is using IE to view this site. I am a Firefox user.

Nope, didn't see that while using Firefox, but I have a IE tab add-on in Firefox. When I opened the site using that I could see the big blue button. I went back later in FF and hovered over where I now knew it should be located and it opened the download window.

I wish I would remember that when something strange like this comes up.

Could it be due to a setting in an add-on, like NoScript, or a browser setting not to show images?
