EBSCO PDF Bug Workaround

Hi folks,

Caroline Daniels at KPU passed on info about an EBSCO db bug which results in the wrong PDF displaying when a user tries to view an EBSCO article PDF in their browser - it will display the wrong article from the same issue of the journal.  EBSCO reports they are working on the issue, but passed on a workaround:

In the meantime, as a workaround, you can disable PDFs from being viewed in your web browser which should allow you to view the correct article. This can be done by:

1. Open Adobe Reader.
2. From the Edit menu, choose Preferences.
3. In the Preferences menu, choose the Internet category on the left hand side.
4. Uncheck display PDF in Browser, click OK and close Adobe Reader.
5. This will allow you to view the PDF outside of the web browser and out of our PDF Viewer which should allow you to view the appropriate PDF file.

Thanks for passing this on, Caroline!
