<div class="PlainText">Hi,<br>
<br>
Without opening a pdf, attached to an email but simply using my <br>
computer's print option, is there still a risk of some kind of <br>
infection?<br>
<br>
I ask as some time I asked the question whether opening a pdf could <br>
compromise my computer and the best advise at the time was that it was <br>
possible.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
<br>
