If your Acrobat Reader does not open the file automatically, then right click and click "Save Target As".

This is a known bug to our board which I am trying to solve. So right now instead of using PDF files as attachment, try to Zip it first. Then attach the ZIP file. Zip file is the known file format that works with our current board version

You have to Unzip the file first.

Somehow IE can overcome this problem. But not all IE users can avoid this problem.

I would still recommend you to use "right click" and "Save Target As" and save this file to your PC first.

I have changed the file to WINZIP format so your browser should prompt you to save the file to your PC. After downloading the file, unzip the file.

Our board has been upgraded. PDF files should work now.

Anyone who still have problem please let me know. Here's a test PDF (one of past Geert's explanation on Oza).
