old game

[erdie]

someone has given me a copy of an old game called Wargasm, i have tried to play it and it seems pretty good. The only problem is that there is no paper instruction manual, i eventually found one on the disc in PDF format. But i am not able to print it out as the print option is greyed out and it is to hard to read(and remember) the manual from my monitor. Does anyone know of any way that i can make the programme let me print this out.

Could you copy (using the [abc] button) the document, or the relevent parts of it and paste it into word or other editor?

no it wont let me copy and paste either.
Maybe i should just try and develop a photographic memory over christmas and remember the manual

as a last resort, I suppose you could take screenshots of the important parts, bit ott but would work.

yes that is what i will have to do i dont know why i didn't think of doing that in the first place. It may take a bit of time but i cant play the game properly without the instructions.
thanks

The reason you can't print or copy/paste is that you're using the free Adobe Acrobat Reader. You need to use the full version of Adobe Acrobat (not just the reader) to be able to print/copy/edit ect.

Strange, I always been able to print with the free versions of Acrobat Reader.

That is not the reason. You CAN copy and print using the reader. You just can't edit the pdf. The probable reason is that the actual pdf is a copy-protected file. See if google can find you a cracker for it. oops. illegal stuff. hush hush. Beware, if you're in the US you are in breach of the DMCA, which carries mandatory heavy penalties...

i took advice from calv on this and took a screeshot from the relevant pages and pasted them into word and then printed that out.
I have got a few versions of the reader and it wouldnt let me print out on any of them, and i have been able to do that in the past.
