Actually, I wasn't. Maintaining civility, "that turns
out not to be the case." Or perhaps, "that is true,
except when it isn't." If you carefully parse what I
wrote, I did not suggest that there is a general
incompatibility between Acrobat 3 files and Acrobat 4.
However, there *is* an incompatibility between certain
Acrobat 3 .pdf files and Acrobat 4, which was noted on
the Apple page I where originally downloaded them. If
one tries to open them in Acrobat 4, the error message
"Unable to extract the embedded font 'Palatino-Roman'.
Some characters may not display or print correctly."
appears. "Some", in this case, being >95%.

These are Developer Notes for various Duo and Dock
models, not the service manuals per se, which is where
perhaps I led you astray. They nonetheless contain
useful information which is not necessarily in the
service manuals, so I was lumping them together for
comprehensiveness.

This statement I agree with.
