file not opening

Hi,

I've recently changed laptops and brought over to it three WB files relating to websites built. However, while two open up, the one that I want to use does not. Also, this non-working one still opens on my old laptop.

Please advise,

Hi,

Is there a good PDF viewer extension available (or however best phrased)? I could simply upload the PDF I have in mind, and its URL ending with .pdf, but I wondered if there were a more elegant way of displaying this?
