Strategy Guide - Got it but can't open it

Post by RobertWevodau »

Hi,

I finally got the "download" button and downloaded and installed the Strategy Guide. The problem is that when I try to open it I get an error message "There was an error opening this document. This viewer cannot decrypt this document". I have Acrobat REader 4.0, and it has opened everything else I have ever tried, but not the Strategy Guide. Anyone else have this problem, or could anyone please help with some advice?

I can't wait to read it; this is frustrating.

Thanks,
Robert

Go grab yourself a current version of Acrobat Reader. v4 can not deal with v5/v/6 files.

Mr Frag,

Thanks. I got Acrobat V6.01 and it did the trick - I can now read the Stratgy Guide. Thanks for your help; I didn't realize my Reader was so out of date.

It is 189 pages worth of information. How you use it and what value you get out of it is really up to you. This is not an adventure game with a walkthrough. [;)]

At $20, you really can't loose. Thats about 1/2 an hour of someone's time to give you some lessons.

Even if it improves your play by 10%, thats 10% more troops you'll have stomping on Yakstock. I'm sure Eric would have loved an extra 10% of his troops working on that final day [:D]

So, who has been offering lessons at $20/30 minutes?

Doesn't sound like a bad idea at all, I think I'll go start a thread and post a sign up sheet. :)
