Why is it so slow to download color news clips and why
can’t I open the color news clip file even though my computer has met the
minimum technical requirements?
If it takes too long to download a color news clip, one of the reasons may be
that your internet connection speed is too low. Recommended Internet connection
speed is at least 64 Kbps. If you cannot increase the speed, you may choose to
download black & white news clips, as the file size is smaller. For further
information,
see How to Use.
If you cannot view the colored news clips, you may not have the Acrobat Reader
installed in your computer or the Acrobat version you have may be out-of-date.
You can download the latest version of Acrobat Reader
here.
