I don't believe this is true. Can you send me a PDF that

UNLESS the document is "trusted". In Acrobat/Reader 9 (which I can
finally talk about!), we've provided better controls on trust.

With Acrobat (but not Reader 9), we also now support automatic "re-

example) up, change it, and then just Save in Word - Acrobat will
detect the change and update the embedded document.
