well, I guess you are right :-)

actually, I can open them with a document viewer, but not with the
(default) adobe reader. :-((
I filed the bug, as it actually happened that firefox worked only AFTER
i did some configurations while trying to set-up webdav (didn't succeed
yet ). before, it didn't work at all (pity there's no proper doc on how
to set up these modules)
 
So I thought that maybe someone did find a solution to this.

thank you anyway!

Title:
  [6.1 trunk] : [document, document_ftp] cannot open pdf file from ftp
  server

Status in OpenERP Modules (addons):
  New

Bug description:
  hi there,

  rev 4656, ubuntu 11.04

  I configured the document management to generate files for invoices
  knowledge>config>doc. mgmt.>directories
  new directory
  name:Invoices
  parent: documents
  database storage
  type: ressource
  model: invoice
  field:number
  domain:[]
  find all ressources: yes
  generated file:
  name: invoice
  sequence:1
  suffix: _print
  doc type: PDF Report
  include the name: yes
  PDF report: Invoice

  navigating the ftp server I can find all structures and files (virtual
  pdf, 0bites) I can open with firefox, however, NOT with the file
  manager (ubuntu).

  thenk you!
