[QUOTE="Kae'Yoss, post: 3513509, member: 4134"] It is a waste of time, simply put. instead of just clicking on a link and reading through the table, I have to download something, open a file manage, unpack the archive, and click on the PDF, then wait for Acrobat to open. What would have taken an effortless second now takes a minute or more and a lot of klicking around. Just get a decent browser that does its work as it's supposed to do. Plus, I can't see what's so important in the layout and rendering of a table of contents preview. It's not as if they're giving us our proof printings for our 2.000.000 print run high-gloss magazine.
