Dropbox StaffThanks for trying that out for me, speedijim.
If you have a secondary browser on your mobile device, could you also try copying the shared link as it is and pasting it there?
Let me know what you find!
- Ms edge did open the pdf.... But individuals that access this file will only have Chrome installed...
Thanks- Lusil

Could you send me a screenshot (without any personal info) of what you see when you copy the link, replace dl=0, and paste it to your primary browser to preview it?

Keep me posted!
