Re: PDF compatibility.

On one computer I have the full Acro 7.08 set as the default for PDF*s, in
both the filesystem and the browsers.  Increasingly, I'm seeing web PDFs,
even one-pagers for rebate forms, hang Acrobat.  Each time you hang, you
get a[nother] stuck instance of Acrobat or two, and a transient (1 min) run
of Acromsg.  You never see any messages, and the processes are not
accessible from the Win interface.

Foxit 2 reads 'em, with simple dragondrop of a dl'd file.

Beware especially of files created by late versions of Quark, (Win or Mac)
beloved of the advertising fraternity.


*probably a medium-stupid thing to do, but I have to apply so many quick
bandaids to the editable PDFs that flit through here that I need this.
(Having a late version of AcroWin as the creator is a partial defense if
some other schmo can't open them.  I don't usually play the Beltway
truthiness game, but hey, life was getting hard.)
