Library PDF Issues


So, I was browsing the library this evening, when I saw the PDF of Ignition. The PDF displayed as "blank page, image, image", and then blank pages through the end of the book, except for the last two pages. I checked this on a few different computers, and it works on some, but not on others. Could someone check to make sure the PDF isn't completely broken? Thanks.

I'll include the file I downloaded, it should show you what I mean.

Attachment: ignition.pdf (3.5MB)

The SM library version looks ok to me, although it does have several blank pages.

That one looks fine to me.. OH GOD THE FEDS ARE BrEaKiNg DOWN MY DOOR

It doesn't even mention Yew (American, English, Chinese, Japanese) as a source of ephedrine....

Using Win10 with Adobe reader, both auto-updated;

when I clicked on the link I got a document with blank - photo - blank - blank........
clicking on the Adobe download icon - all of the pages become visible.

Adobe must have messed up the viewer during a recent update.

Downloading a different PDF viewer did the trick. I used PDF Viewer for chrome(book). It has worked for everything that was not showing up, but that is hardly an exhaustive sampling. I think it might just be a formatting thing. Maybe stick a note on the library page until this is resolved?
