Try to make soon a new version available where the user gets an clear message when there is no newspaper available, because this is now a little bit unclear.

Hello Cade,
Steve’s right when there is no pdf available nothing happens. It happens sometimes that metro does not publish their newspaper. I really don’t know why.
Not al scripts are tested so it’s possible that something is not working. If that is the case please contact me; see for more information the Read Me file.
