Dear Harry Gilbert, We attempted to use the free paper capture plugin with Adobe Acrobat 5.0 but found that one of the *.dlls that the Acrobat plugin installed was old code. When we installed other software it updated the .dll and disabled Paper Capture. It is probable that the Paper Capture plugin for Acrobat 4.05 also uses some older .dlls. Have you installed any new software since you installed the Adobe Acrobat plug-in. If you have, reinstalling Adobe Acrobat will fix your Adobe Capture plugin but will disable the new software. If this is indeed the problem you are experiencing then you are not alone. It is the nature of software to reuse code whenever possible, and the same nature to fix bugs whenever found. It is the annoying side effect that some fixes result in disabling other software relying on the flawed code to work as expected. If I remember correctly the .dll that trapped us was a standard microsoft windows .dll. Good Luck, Sam Brenner >>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/20/03 08:12:54 >>> I declined to update my Acrobat 4.05 because Adobe removed the paper capture plug-in in later versions. I make occasional use of the ability to scan in documents and use the paper convert tool to make the resulting PDF searchable. Now I find that two copies of Acrobat 4.05 -- one at work, and another at home -- both simultaneously have failures of the paper capture plug-in. The page is recognized, and an error message "An unrecoverable error occurred in Paper Capture" appears when the converted page is about to be written to file. Is this a real "error" or did Adobe put a Trojan in the program to disable paper capture?
