I guess you weren't paying close attention to what I said. It's not what *I* want, it's what is dictated to be on the standard desktop image. But as I also said, I personally have the authority to get around that restriction, but not everyone does and there is a push to take that authority away with the next image roll out. >It 'may' open them, but some PDF files now take advantage of >capabilities that version 5 simply cannot handle.

Well unless I could prove that there was documentation only readable by a acrobat reader above V5, then I wouldn't have a good case to force the desktop support to upgrade me. That is all I meant. So far, I've not run across that issue (yet) doing "my job". I would also think a vendor would be careful in creating documentation that could not even be opened/read by Adobe 5, but perhaps that is giving them too much credit.
