.... I assume your customer sent *.PDF, not *.PLT. Acrobat
Reader can only view *.PDF, the Acrobat Portable Data Format - it is
a style of compressed and enhanced Postscript. (maybe your customer
gave them the extension *.plt, depending on the tool he made these
files with. But if you could view it with Acrobat, then the format
must be PDF)
