So that's a "no" then. A "rule of thumb" is still significantly better than
nothing.

Pretty much anything that isn't allowed by Reader.

Is there a list of things that Aren't Kosher with Reader Enabled forms?

Attachments break Reader Enabling at any time - nothing to do
with multiple updates.

Okay. That PDF looks fine. And there's the "oh no you don't"
message from Reader.
Yep, the file was appended properly, but is no longer Reader
Enabled. I suspect that attaching a file is a no-no. It may simply be some "%
of change" test, or any of several other possibilities.
The file has been appended to 4 times. The 3rd time Reader
Enabled the form, the fourth time contains your attachment.

Here is a sample PDF as requested
Tschüss,
Michael Marcavage
It doesn't sound that way, no.
I wonder if this is a technical issue, or a common
sense one... lets have a look... There's nothing in the PDF spec about it, and
I don't see anything in the code either.
How can you tell that append mode was disabled? Is it
just that your PDF is no longer Reader Enabled or did you actually look at the
file internals? I suspect the latter. That leads me to believe that the
Reader Enabling doesn't work with new embedded files.
Can we see your PDF?
