Help with Woodcraft Instructions File Format

[magpens]

Someone, please .... Trying to open the instructions for this Woodcraft item.

https://www.woodcraft.com/products/...29041927&_bta_c=ezh4bhg407tlkf3d3laxz8pjnup6a

It seems to be a new ... and weird ... file format which I have never encountered before.

No "Open With .... Browse" file options presented seem to work.

I do not have any high-end text-creation/edit/read software.

Can someone please suggest a way of reading these instructions, please.

Doesn't even open for me. Firefox browser.

The main page opens fine with Firefox.

But I am trying to read the instructions without success.

Opens fine for me if it is for the ulu knife. iMac using Safari.

Whoops. Tried it a second time and it won't open.

I suspect a file naming error. Woodcraft usually used pdf files. Add a .pdf on the end of the file name and try it.

Mal, download and save the file, then when you have it downloaded, rename the file and add the ".pdf" extension to it and it opens fine. They just apparently messed up the file name and didn't check it. Works just fine after that.

Edit:I should have looked before I posted, apparently KenV figured it out already.

Thanks, guys ! . Now I can make Ulu knives with the knife scales I bought some time ago.

I'd also be interested in making some conventional knives, if I can find some classy metal blades at reasonable cost. . Damascus would be nice but ....... you know.

Check Woodcraft. They have some nice knife kits.

It opened as a PDF for me. See if you can open this one.

 

[magpens]

Yes, Rick, that one opens fine, thanks.

Just a file naming error as Ken said. . I got the file to open after I renamed with .pdf
