A PDF I'm trying to open is only displaying the first page - all the other pages are blank. How do I fix this?

Larger PDFs may have difficulty displaying within a web browser. Try going to your downloads folder and opening the file from there instead of opening within the browser. You could also save the file to a different folder on your computer (other than the downloads folder) and then open from that folder. If you are doing that and still having trouble getting the PDF to display, please contact tsw@utlists.utexas.edu for assistance.

I'm having trouble using Texas ScholarWorks. Who should I report this to?

...

We aim to provide access to collection materials in a manner that is respectful to the individuals and communities who create, use, steward, and are represented in our holdings, but we realize that descriptive work is not and never has been neutral: it is done by people with their own backgrounds, experiences, and biases. We are committed to reviewing and correcting harmful language in our descriptions, and providing contextualization for language within the documents themselves. When providing feedback on Texas ScholarWorks (TSW) materials, please include a URL to the relevant item whenever possible. 

Please see ourUT Libraries' Statement on Harmful Language and Content for more information.
