Acrobat forms
If students encounter a problem and suspect that it could be necessary to open the form in a browser, you can change the default preferences for the way PDF's are displayed by opening Acrobat reader, going to Edit and Preferences. Under the Internet section there is a checkbox for "display in browser" that you can check and then any pdf will then open within the browser. If it becomes a popular solution then we may want to indicate a machine that is set this way, since this alteration stays set and even survives a reboot of the machine. Note that using File & Print from the program menu doesn't work properly when pdfs open within the browser- an issue that was discovered by Kaya and Marcy during the copier training.
