Pat: What version is included in Acrobat Reader 7.X? I had quite a few problems after installing 7.X, and had to go back and manually "over-install" 3.0.2 to get things working properly again...
Any insights? Rick Bullotta CTO Lighthammer Software (http://www.lighthammer.com) -----Original Message----- From: Paton J.

Adobe SVG Viewer 2.0 shipped with Acrobat and Acrobat Reader 5.x, but no version of Adobe SVG Viewer ships with Acrobat or Adobe Reader 6 or higher. > > Of course the real problem is that CSC has the desktops so shut down > that 99% of the people can't install the plugin on their own.

There was a bug in the Adobe SVG Viewer Windows installer which prevented installation on Windows XP systems even when the user had administrator privileges. In this case the installer incorrectly identified the user as not being an administrator. This bug existed in Adobe SVG Viewer installers 1.0 through 3.01, and 6.0 PR1. This bug was fixed in the Adobe SVG Viewer 3.02 installer, which is available here: http://www.adobe.com/svg/viewer/install/ > > Can anyone confirm that it should be part of the Acrobat Reader > install? If so perhaps I can raise a stink and get them to fix it. We would be happy to receive feedback on how we can make the Adobe Reader more useful to you. To make sure your request goes to the right place, please fill out this on-line form: http://www.adobe.com/ support/feature.html > Or, is there a trick I can do to get the plugin installed on my own? > Even if it's something like taking my install and zipping it together > and making my own installer. Unfortunately the EULA for Adobe SVG Viewer does not permit this. If the latest installer of Adobe SVG Viewer (version 3.02) does not address your problem, then please contact customer support and we may be able to provide further assistance. http://support.adobe.com/devsup/devsup.nsf/svgkb.htm Pat ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
