IRS Form 1023 Will Not Download

I am attempting to download the IRS form 1023. I get a message after the download starts that tells me "If this message is not eventually replaced by the proper contents of the document, your PDF viewer may not be able to display this type of document.   You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader for Windows®, Mac, or Linux® by visiting  http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html.   For more assistance with Adobe Reader visit  http://www.adobe.com/support/products/ acrreader.html."

Nothing ever happens. I have updated to the latest version of Reader DC and still get this message. I am running Windows 10 and my browser is Edge.

    I imagine there is a simple way to download/save the PDF from whatever you are viewing it in. But that's not really our department.

    You can try right clicking on this link, which is the form you get from IRS: https://www.stayexempt.irs.gov/StayExempt/Interactive-Form-1023.pdf

    That's another way of doing it. Glad it worked. Note that ai suggested a RIGHT click not a regular click.

    Download the pdf by right clicking the link to the file and choose to save it to your computer. Then open Reader and use File>Open to open it.

    You are getting this message because the browser you are using does not use Adobe Reader to view the pdf. It uses its own pdf viewer which doesn't work with pdf forms.

    The download site does not give me an option when I right click to download. Here the link to the download page

    I have turned off Edge's default PDF reader as it won't even open the IRS PDF file.

    Don't view the form in the browser. View it in Reader.
