i'm on mac os 10.6.7 & downloaded the pdf with firefox (safari wouldn't
download it)

Preview:

The file "an-open-web-1.pdf" could not be opened. It may be damaged or
use a file format that Preview doesn’t recognize.

Adobe Reader 6.0:

There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could
not be repaired.

OpenOffice 3.3.0 opened it as an editable document in OO Draw.
