Downloading a PDF file

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

I recently upgraded to Adobe Reader v7.0. In version 6 I could click on a
PDF file or file link at a web site and download it. With version 7 the file
is displayed rather than downloaded. I have been unable to find a preference
or option to change this behavior. Does anyone know how to change it so it
will download instead of display?

It's in preferences in adobe.

Edit - Preferences - Options (at least in version 5, the last version worth installing)

And, you can still right click "save target as" to download the file. (if
you want to keep it)
