Push notification document mystery.

Is it just me or there is something seriously wrong with the PDF "Push Notifications for iOS - Detailed Instructions" in the HOW TO's section? I can see the images but the text is just gibberish. Or maybe my English is a tad worse than I thought... Farcat

hmm - yeah there's definitely something wrong there. Send @Niraj a PM and let him know. I saw the print version of this how-to in person over the weekend and it's something of a beauty.

I saw it downloaded and rendered just fine on a person's iMac last night. I sent Farcat a private email with the document attached. Perhaps the Server was having hiccups. -- Niraj

Niraj - can you send it to me via email as well? I've had problems every time I try to open it. I think I had it working the very first time I saw it, when you linked to it in the forums, but that copy is long gone. Thanks, Chris

nevermind - I found the old one on my computer. There definitely is something going on with the one hosted on Buzztouch.com though.

Wait, let's troubleshoot this since a buddy had no problems a few nights ago. Yet a few of you have honest-to-goodness problems with that file. What app is your PDF Reader, on what OS? -- Niraj

Good call Niraj - it's definitely a problem with the reader. When I open the pdf via Adobe Acrobat, it displays just fine. However, when I try to view it in the browser (Firefox 20.0, OSX), the text shows up garbled. My guess is the in-browser viewer can't render the font properly.

@Chris -- how about reading of that PDF by the Preview app, in the browser and stand-alone? -- Niraj

Hi Niraj, Same as Chris, via Acrobat Reader is fine but not through the browser (Firefox 20.0, OSX). Farcat
