Acrobat is a _creator_, Foxit is a _reader_.
I'm curious, what do you folks with "Acrobat" problems have also
installed on your PC's? I suspect freebie virus scan programs.
I have one machine with v4, v5 and v7 co-installed. No problems. I
use v4 for schematics, v5 for form creation and v7 to read stuff the
other versions won't and it also handles scanning nicely.

Robert,
It was created with Acrobat v7.1.0, by scanning directly into
Acrobat... "make PDF from Scanner".
Given all your various symptoms, I think you have something else wrong
other than Acrobat.
Do you have Acrobat, or do you really have Adobe Reader?
Try looking at installed programs... do you have more than one program
that might be trying to read PDF's?
...Jim Thompson
I have the full Acrobat 4.05 for reading and printing (to PDF).[/quote:a29e324350]
I have seen this problem before, so i installed FoxIt (which read
your PDF correctly).
Acrobat is the default. |

v4.05 can't cope with some features from v7.1, though, IIRC, I did
reduce the scan to v4 compatibility before posting.

I'll try to be more careful with my postings and keep them v4

Mine is not allowing it, Jim. The settings button is grayed out.
Is there something in 'Preferences' that I need to set or unset
as the case may be? I'd like to also save PDF's with backwards
compatibility.
Thanks,

So it's a 'Reduce File Size' feature, not of 'Save As'.

4.05 is too old, IMHO. 5 or better at a minimum (I have 5 installed on
my ancient (ca. 2003) Win2K machine and there are some things it won't
open, but not too many yet). I think most people saving PDFs for the
most general distribution try to accomodate 5.x.
BTW, at the other side of the spectrum, apparently the I7
hyperthreading works really, really well on LTSPICE. Can't wait to
pair that up with Win7 64 bit.

Windows only allows one program to be associated with a file extension.
DUH!
Imagine that!
At any time with most files, one can right click on the file and select
"Open with" to select a different program for association or with which
to run it. |
