Make sure you are using supported PDF software and saving the file normally after making changes. Some browser-based PDF viewers may not preserve all interactive features reliably.
Adobe Acrobat may display a Security Warning when the Personal Affairs Organizer opens another PDF, such as its Continuation Sheets. This is a normal Adobe security precaution.
Check that the filename and location shown belong to your extracted Personal Affairs Organizer folder. If you recognize the file, select Allow. Otherwise, select Block.
The warning may appear again in future sessions. You do not need to disable or change Acrobat’s security settings.
Product updates should be treated as separate versions unless specific upgrade instructions are provided. Do not assume informatiaon entered in an older copy will automatically transfer into a newer release.
