When I print this puzzle, the PDF file gets a different puzzle than the one which is displayed for both, solving and the peek solution.

They are similar, but the displayed one is a 3 colors puzzle, while the PDF one uses 5 colors and I think it has many solutions. I suppose the PDF one is an older version (which doesn't appear in the peek).

I wrote this same comment in Bugs (Topic #5), but I haven't get any answer there.

Well, solving it nearly 10 years after Martha...
I'd make only one change: Find the "e" in the top row. The column immediately to the left is currently 17-3-2. I'd change it to 7-7-3-2 to give the "e" a fuller left side.

Not a complaint, at all! I liked solving this one!

This was a very tough puzzle for me with a very rewarding solve.
