When I download a PDF file-it just came out with this language of gibberish gook that I don't know what to do with... what Miss me on my pc to translate that into something readable?

Whenever I have download word documents, they come out in a computer language, I don't know how to convert.  I have adobe Flash player on my pc and tried to download adobe reader.  Please help as it is very frustrating.

Thank you

A pdf file (which is a file with the pdf file of letters after the dot in the filename), can be read by installing the free software Adobe Reader (remember to uncheck the box to install McAfee Security Scan) or free Foxit Reader (frequent contributors here prefer the latter).

If you do not have Microsoft Word, you can read Word documents (files with the doc of letters or docx after the dot in the filename), by downloading and installing the free Word Viewer (read the doc files created by Word 2003 and earlier versions) and the free Office Compatibility Pack (reads the docx files, which are created by Word 2007 and later versions).  If you choose to install these applications, be sure to visit Microsoft Update immediately after to be sure to get a needed updates.

Adobe Flash Player is not relevant to this question.

If you have problems to install Adobe Reader, please provide more information, including the full text of any error message, without paraphrase and the version and service pack of Windows you have (right click on desktop and select properties for more details).
