    you need a pdf reader such as adobe acrobat reader or foxit reader. Both are free.

    I would suggest Foxit Reader. It is smaller in size with the same/most of the functionalities as Adobe's.

    Thanks
    I have never delt with any pdf files in my files i just usually deal with rar files and pics. I've never heard of foxit reader i'll just go with adobe acrobat reader because i've heard of it.
    Do they only read pdf files or do they read other types of files?

    only PDF. the main advantage foxit has over adobe reader is its significantly faster. adobe reader gets slower with each new version.

    Might get foxit instead but the downside is that i'm not really going to use them alot i'll probably use it a couple of times a year. I'll try foxit.
    Thanks for the help guys. ;D

    They just keep piling new crap on it and never seeing that people don't want to sit around for 20 seconds to open a PDF file. Foxit opens up on my computer in less than 2 seconds.

    And it doesn't matter if you use it or not, you'll have it for when you need it. ;)
