It says I need word or something like that and when I click on the links it gives me it wants me to pay like $30.00 for the software for a year to download PDF files.
Is there a way to do it without having to pay for it?
Thanks!
This is an emergency by the way and I have to download a file and have been trying to figure it out all day by myself how to do it.

Go to www.adobe.com and download Adobe Reader for free. You shouldn't have to go through so many hoops!

Go to my Free Software page and download the PrimoPDF Converter or on my Computer Help page you will find the following software which is better and works with the free Adobe Reader 9:



Free PDF File Converter



Why pay up to $139.00 for pdf converting software like Adobe Writer & others when you can download the only %100 free pdf software you will ever need right here at freestuff2do.com? Convert any file to a pdf free & simple. (32 & 64-bit supported)



doPDF



When installing, be sure when prompted to "check" the box that allows you to install the software as a default printer.



After installation perform a restart. Then simply open the file you wish to convert in "Windows Photo Gallery", click on "Print" then select "Print" from the drop-down menu and choose the "doPDF v6" printer, next click on the "Print" button and a "Save pdf file" window will open. Under file name enter C:\Users\UserName\Documents\Full page photo.pdf and then click on "OK". Your document will now be saved as a pdf in "Adobe Reader". This operation does not actually print a paper copy of the document, It only saves it as a pdf. This software works best with Adobe Reader 9



For those who are recommending the Adobe pdf please be advised that it is a only trial version and will only allow you to create 5 pdfs and then you will have to purchase it or uninstall it leaving behind all the entries in the registry. The software I am proposing allows you to create and read unlimited pdfs for free.

If all you want to do is open PDF files, then all you need is the FREE Adobe reader.

you have to have Adobe to open PDF files. If you do not have it, you will not be able to open the document. You will have to contact the sender and tell them to send it as a word document.
