I was trying to read an online tool catalogue, and noticed a PDF button at the bottom of the webpage. Clicked on it, and it opened the dialog box to download. What has been downloaded though is a .php script (27.3MB).
The properties shows that it contains a pdf document, but I've no idea how to run it, open it, or whatever needs to be done, to get to see the PDF.
Any suggestions folks.
Try to rename it: mv FILE_NAME.php FILE_NAME.pdf and open it with Evince Athmane Madjoudj
No need to rename it, just run $ evince FILE_NAME.php
Of course $ file FILE_NAME.php will always give you a reasonable guess about what the file format really is.
