A Gmail PDF Tip or how to read a PDF without installing software

gmail

I found myself on a computer that did not have any software installed capable of opening a PDF file.

The thought of installing Adobe Acrobat or Foxit Reader just to open this single page PDF file seemed like a lot of trouble.

In the back of my head I thought I remembered Google’s email service Gmail could natively read PDF’s.

So I e-mailed or g-mailed (if you will) the file to myself and low and behold I could open/read the PDF.

So simple and useful.
