Don't need adobe, it's a PITA....take your pick....I used to use Foxit when I was on Windows.

There are about a million free pdf reader programs. Foxit is good, Sumatra is good........oh and you can open pdf's in Google Chrome also Edge, Firefox and probably any or all of the other major browsers.

My tip regarding receiving PDF's in an email - rather than opening the PDF from within the email window, save the PDF first, and then open the file using explorer and right-clicking - select Open with Adobe Acrobat Reader.

Because you probably do have the program installed, but the problem you're getting is because you're not using it.

Do you need to print it? I don’t understand why people print stuff that they could look at on screen and/or save if needed for later. My mum’s forever printing stuff and no doubt spending a fortune on ink and paper. For what? To file away for a rainy day?!

well speaking for myself, I print visa statements so i can note on each transaction what account it is to be paid from, then I add it all up and pay the share of the bill from each account as required. I could do all that on a spreadsheet or by writing out as a table on a seperate piece of paper, but sometimes it's just easier to make notes on the source document where all the required info is already there...

Pdf-Xchange, free pdf editor. Then you can just type your notes directly on the source document without needing to print it at all.

Keep them all in a folder for that purpose, on your computer.

morning. your right, and no i dont print them all but because the man has got some of his stuff on it, i find it easier to write on it when hes paid and what iv paid off. . and where not talking hundreds and hundreds here, lol, but its just easier for me to do that.
