This is a pretty good release, but I think that it is terrible that Adobe chose to actively block the Operating System's ability to print to a PDF. I use this as a way of saving filled-in PDF forms, but of course Adobe wants to force us to buy the full version to use a feature which is Already Provided By The OS!
Thanks but no thanks. Because of that behavior I don't want to deal with that company. I'll buy a third-party PDF program before even looking at Adobe for PDFs.
It's too bad Shubert IT's free PDF Plugin doesn't do forms well (the font sizes in the fill-in fields are goofy for some reason). Hopefully they will fix that and then I can get rid of Adobe Reader entirely.

Does it take away "print to PDF" even when the AReader isn't running? Would like to know before downloading and installing. I find the OS X "print to PDF" function incredibly useful and would hate to lose it.Monday, April 04 2005 @ 01:49 AM PDT
