Subject: [PDF-Forms] Older Versions of Adobe Reader


Well, I've been watching the forum for some time since the introduction of
the new Adobe Acrobat 6.0 program and it seems the general consensus is that
it is VERY buggy to date.  So, I had to check out my PDF forms and see how
they run on the 6.0 Reader.  For the most part they operate about the same,
but for whatever reason my form navigation technique is going all nutty in
the newer version.  I'm not exactly sure what the problem is, but I'll be
investigating (someday when I get spare time).
I know my script checks versions, but it is set to check for versions lower
than 5.0 and do actions accordingly.  Should be fine with 6.0, but alas it's
not.
At any rate, I HATE to spend more time reconfiguring this HUGE PDF download
I have created, because it is becoming increasingly more futile.  We are
upgrading our whole process to an ASP interface with a SQL database for web
access.  Finally, Adobe will be completely out of the picture (for the most
part anyway).
So, I am simply looking to put a script on the PDF now to check the version
number and suggest the user use no version higher than 5.1.  With that, I'm
looking on Adobe's site now for something that USED to be there, but is hard
to find now.  That is a page where you can download previous versions of the
Reader.  Anyone have any ideas where this might be?
Sorry for the long winded email to get to the point, but Adobe is making me
INCREASINLY more frustrated with its product.
Any help is greatly appreciated.  THANKS
