When troubleshooting byteserve issues, first check
your system and browser configuration. Answer three
questions:
- Does your browser support byteserving?
- Is Acrobat set up as a plug-in?
- Are the web browser plug-ins or ActiveX controls
installed in the correct locations?
If the answer to all three is "yes," then
your system and browser are properly configured,
and any problem with byteserving is likely due to
another issue, such as whether the PDF files have
been optimized for byteserving or whether the Web
browser supports byteserving.
