PDF files

[Jared]

Hi,

I assume PDF files are handled like PowerPoint viewer files.

PDF files aren't handled at all, unless you install the Adobe Reader 7.07

Hi Jared,

Only in that they require additional software to view them. PowerPoint files
run with MSOffice's PowerPoint software or viewer, .pdf files use Adobe
Acrobat Reader or Foxit software.

Foxit: http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php

Hi,

After installing Acrobat Reader 7, my System Stability Chart (Reliability
Monitor) shows a huge lost of performance. Does anyone have this problem? Is
it a bug or problem in/with Acrobat Reader 7?

Microsoft and Adobe are fighting like two four year-olds in a sandbox. I
wouldn't expect a lot of compatability in their respective products just yet.

ACrobat products have been awful in performance since about v3, and
getting worse with each point-release. Install the free FoxIt reader for
PDFs.

Thanks Mike for the FoxIt Reader tip
