Mergent Quirks

If Mergent behaves weirdly with respect to printing, try this:
Save the pdf file to the Temp directory and then open up the user's email and attach the pdf file:
1. Click on the Save Icon on the Adobe toolbar .
2. Navigate to the Temp directory (shouldn't take long; most dirs on public computers are hidden anyway) & Save.
3. In a new window (don't want to lose the document in case things go wrong), go to www.mail.umn.edu, unless the user has another account they'd prefer to use that can be reached via the web.
4. Have them log in and set up a message to themselves. Then use the browse button to get to the temp directory and select the file just saved.
5. Once you're back at the message screen, click on the Attach button and you're done.

NOTE: You do *not* have to check the boxes next to the message recipient's name or the attached file for them to be sent (I just verified this). -- Amy
