I often have trouble opening pdf's.  Who's the keeper-of-the-code
for this stuff?

Here's the error I get running page on the file.

Does anyone have an idea how to make this work or why it doesn't?  The
file was downloaded  from

	http://www.prayday.com/A55691/web2/personalprayer.nsf

under the "Display Format" link, though I can't open the booklet
either.  Under OS X, I can open the file just by clicking on it in
Safari or downloading and using Preview, so I don't know what the
password stuff is about.  One thing I did notice is that this is
PDF-1.4 and a quick grep of some of my readable .pdfs indicates that
they are PDF-1.[23].

Not a big deal, but it would be nice if I could just read these in
Plan 9, or even if someone just said "You can't because...." and
filled in the blank, I'd feel better about it.

As always, thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
