Yes, Preview was one of the "couple others" and Graphic Converter was  
the other.  Do you have all your fonts installed? I'm not sure what  
additional fonts you'd need, though, especially with the scanned  
files since they're just graphic images. See the list below. Using  
the programs below I was able to view both the electronic and scanned  
versions of HSN.

So here's a list of programs that will open HSN on my Mac
System is OS 10.4, 2.5 gb memory G5 dual.

Adobe Professional v7.01
Adobe Reader v7.01
Preview (v3.0)
Graphic Convertor (v5.5)
Appleworks (v6)
Quicktime Player (v7.0)
Mail.app (v2.0) Composition window
And.. using Palm Reader on my ancient Handspring Visor, I can view  
the electronic versions. I can't view the scanned issues, unfortunately.
