You need adobe acrobat reader. You can download this for free at Adobe's site, which I is www.adobe(.)com, without the brackets of course. On the left hand side of the homepage is a button 'get adobe reader' and this is what you need. Most PC's do have one preinstalled though, are you sure yours doesn't? Sam

I've been doing a lot of my research on the Scotlands people website where you can view images of records. These images can then be saved on to your computer, however I cant open the files once Ive saved them, apparently saved in PDF format. anybody know what program I need to use to open these files? Thanks jamie
