Thanks Leonard! My application only runs on Windows platforms (Not on Macs or UNIX). You said that to Reader-enable a document requires the Adobe Document Server with Reader Extensions product from Adobe. This sounds hopeful!! Could you please clarify what I need to do to "Reader-enable" my documents. What is the Adobe Document Server? Is this an additional product that I ( the developer only) need to purchase from Adobe to use to create my pdf or does all end users using Reader need some special piece of software from Adobe that they need to purchase? Thanks again for your help.
