Adobe Reader v7 can only be run in Windows 2000 and Windows XP. Unfortunately, the ocx files that are needed to fix the problem with that ended up breaking earlier versions of Adobe Reader in earlier versions of Windows. The ocx files work fine in Windows 2000 and Windows XP with earlier versions of Adobe Reader.

It wasn't previously, as your attachment indicates. Unfortunately, there now seems to be a problem with some Legacy pdfs. When opened in earlier Acrobat versions the error you mentioned is generated. You are not alone, but it only happens sometimes. I gather that Legacy support is actively trying to determine the cause of the problem, and would suggest that you (and any others with the problem) advise Sherry at support what versions of Legacy, Acrobat and Windows you are using. This will help them diagnose the problem.
