open pdf attachments in email (WP8, Lumia 920)

[Fu Shi]

I can't seem to use microsoft's pdf reader app. Whenever I try to open an attachment in gmail (through IE) it just says "if there are pictures in this email they will not be displayed" and gives me a very ugly, unformated, and text-only version of the original pdf. Anyone else experiencing this issue? Would love a fix. Thanks!

Nope. All PDFs display fine. Only can't zoom in on some of them.

^^^
was that on the email or after you opened the pdf? i mean, it sounds like a security setting that protects you from drive by shooting... in outlook, if that shows up and you don't click allow before hand, anything attached to that email can not be downloaded
