Opening a PDF .topx file

[ALDale13]

Greetings. I currently use an HP Pavilion 8Gb 64Bit Desktop. I cannot open a Pdf .topx file in the reader. It keeps telling me that it can't open Arnold, William The Post Tribulation Rapture .topx because it is not supported or the file is damaged.I've done what it says to do as far as quitting the reader to make sure it's closed and restarted my browser. I am running Windows 7.On the site Institute for Biblical Studies, there is the file that called Arnold, William, The Post Tribulation Rapture. It has four download areas and one of them is for the Amazon Kindle and it does work.. The other's don't let me install and one  is specifically for the Adobe Reader. But, I keep getting the non supported message. Can anyone assist me please?

If the file extension ends with .topx, it is not a PDF file and Reader will not open it. It only opens files that end in .pdf.

Thank you for responding. If you go to OnenessPentecostal.com it will open a website. Scroll down to eschatology and the first two articles display the title Post Trib Rapture. It specifically shows PDF format for the reader. I'm a novice when it comes to computer thing's but this doesn't make sense.

I see that yes. And if you click on that link, it takes you to a page with different file types available. The top link is to a pdf file. Click on that and it should open. If it doesn't, go back to that page, right-click the link and choose to save it to you computer (somewhere easy to find). Then, open Reader and use File>Open to open it.

That being said, I'm not seeing what you would be talking about when you mention a .topx file. I don't see anything like that on that page.

I did click on it and it simply won't open without saying it's unsupported.

?? It keeps telling me to quit the Adobe Reader and open it again. It says

it's unsupported. Or, the file might be damaged. It's not damaged. I have

seen .topx .epub and several other .something or other, but it won't open.

If a .topx won't open in the Adobe Reader, I'm wondering why it keeps

trying to open in it?How can I get Adobe Reader to support this particular

article?

Sorry. I'm absolutely not seeing any file with a .topx extension. Did you download the file (the way I mentioned above) and try to open it in Reader? If so, it should be a .pdf extension. If you are getting something other than a .pdf, I'm not sure what you are doing. But yes, that would be the message if you tried to open anything other than a pdf in Reader.

If Reader is trying to open it, that means your systems file associations doesn't know what program you are supposed to be using and is just defaulting to Reader.

Thank you. I guess that I'm still having trouble learning file extensions/defaults. I blame it on a stroke I had not long ago. I appreciate it.

You're welcome. Glad we got it worked out.

I figured it out, thanks to your suggestion to right click. Thank you much!

OnenessPentecostal.com is the website I tried to install this file. Scroll

down to Eschatology and find Post Tribulation Rapture. Is specifically says

PDF format for the Adobe Reader. I don't understand>
