Scarthy © ® ™ Posted May 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 I would recommend removing Adobe Acrobat Reader 5 first, before installing this. Adobe Acrobat Reader 5 stayed onto my system as Adobe Reader 6 was installed.Found this from someone who has already installed the new version.Update...It's true, remove older versions first. This new version installs to Program Files/Adobe/Acrobat 6.0.First Impressions....Looks alot better than the older version. Let's hope it isn't as 'dodgy' as the older version. I have had tons of attempts at downloading the 'ATI Driver Release Notes' when they release them in PDF format. Older versions seemed to struggle abit. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest LB Posted May 27, 2003 Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 got to agree scarthy, the dynamic zoom is brilliant and as for the read aloud feature... well how cool is that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scarthy © ® ™ Posted May 27, 2003 Author Report Share Posted May 27, 2003 I agree the dynamic zoom is brill. I think the new PDF Icons are really snazzy also. My only fault is the amount of time it takes to load up, a small gripe really for such a good 'bit of kit'. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
