Printing online ERSA entries

Has anybody had dramas printing a downloaded PDF of the online ERSA ?
I can download and view a FAC entry ok, but get a message to the effect of "security permission in this document prohibits printing" when I try and get a hardcopy.

It's a minor nuisance and easily circumvented, but I'm curious to find out if it's just me.

Nope, must be a security setting on your PC, I can open an entry directly from the website and print.

A feature of Adobe pdf's is that printing & sharing can be security controlled. There's a chance that AsA has done this.

The ERSA is $20 or $30 to buy....

Biggles, have you checked your version of the Adobe PDF reader? An upgrade might solve the problem.

It's (sortof) me.
I was using FoxitReader to view saved PDF files, because FoxitReader is nowhere near as bloated as Adobe reader is. (come on Adobe, why is the Adobe Reader a 35 Mbyte download package ?)
Seems that FoxitReader is enforcing the "Printing Allowed : None" setting in the ASA ERSA PDFs.

Ah well., I'll use Sumatra PDF or GSView from now on.
