This bug is now fixed. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Hi folks;
We're working on fixing this problem -- the change will go out with the next deployment (sometime next week).

Hey again - the Apple article gives a good tip (Thanks again, MacUser!). You can rename the file after download (just get rid of the .ps extenstion) and it will open!

I realize this is not a fix, but until we get the issue resolved this should help you out.

I'm a Mac user. On Safari 3.0.4 I just uploaded a PDF to my wiki and tried to download. While it did download as a pdf.ps, it immediately converted from .ps to .pdf upon the incompletion of the download. The file, however, did get an error. I have reported this as bug #871. Thanks for the links, MacUser- this will definitely help us out :)

Apple is blaiming the website that sends the file (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304155), <br />some people too say it's a server issue (http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-167086.html), <br />some blaim MS Office 2008 (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=6549428) - which is not the case. I guess it's time PBwiki developers gain access to a MacOSX machine? – MacUser, on April 28, 2008 10:40

By the way, this also happens in 'bleeding edge' Safari version 2.0.4. – MacUser, on April 28, 2008 10:02

If I surf the web using Safari 3.1.1 and visit a PBwiki and click on a pdf linkie it will download the pdf as xxx.pdf.ps. If I visit any other site on The World Wide Web and do the same thing it will show me the pdf inline. In fact, any pdf from pbwiki domain downloads as .pdf.ps. Go figure.

Pasting is something we are working on right now, we're actually in the final stage of testing it and fixing the bugs. It should be a big improvement on pasting content from programs like MS Word to a wiki page.

Clearing text formatting is on the to-do list. I'm right there with you in hoping it will be done soon.

You're absolutely right not to be able to select default PBwiki 2.0 font, only alternative styles available, there's no easy clear text formatting button, submitted as bug #36.

At MacOSX platform copying and pasting in edit window resolves in a lot of *bs* styling, see source to see what's goin' on .. Workaround: go to Source, select all, copy, paste into plain text editor (f.e. TextEdit / plain text mode), search <p><span style=" bs ">, replace with <p> & search </span></p>, replace with </p>, copy all, paste back into Source, save .. do not know how this works on Win platform ..

Bytheway, fonts are specified by CSS:
- if specified font available on users computer -> display
- if not available -> display dependent of css definition (serif, sans-serif, mono, fixed, etc.) and browsers preference
- browsers preference is user determined and limited to fonts available on users computer
