Hi. I'm new to the forum and I think this is a great site. I'm currently working on learning Portuguese, but my question isn't about that, because I can read those documents just fine.
My problem is with pdf files that are over a certain page count. Anything under 150 pages or so reads fine, but anything over that (a lot of the material on the site, such as the Greek, Russian, and German courses) pops up as solid gray blocks instead of actual text. The Turkish course seems to run fine, though those materials are enormous (over 370 pages each) (yeah, I'm being stupidly ambitious about languages ![]() EDIT: Just to clarify things before digging myself into a hole on my very first post here, I'm not trying to learn all of these languages at the same time. That would be incredibly difficult and stupid. It's just that languages I'm not likely to try to learn (Turkish and Hebrew) have enormous texts that show up fine, while languages that could prove useful (German and Russian) have huge texts that are just page after page of solid gray blocks. I'm saving them on my computer for a rainy day when I'm not studying another language. Edited by lazy george - 26 April 2008 at 12:21pm |

Gee... I don't know. I've opened a number of the large .pdf files (some out of curiosity, some to keep), and I've never run into that problem.

Try downloading Adobe Acrobat Reader. I think the newest version is 8. This is the original PDF reader and may work for you.
Other than that, try deleting the downloaded files and redownloading them. Is it possible that with large files, your computer is just being slow in trying to display them? |

Hi I'm Aishia, regarding PDF files that you encounter, Alew is right you just need to un-install the Adobe Acrobat Reader and then install it again or find the newest version for acrobat reader.
And after you installed the acrobat reader then its not working again try to check your computer maybe there are lots of files stored on it. |
