Re: [PDF-Basics] Reader vs Distiller

[Steven M. Harris]

I believe the file association for PDF defaults to the last one installed - so if you re-install Acrobat 5.0 (full version) that should work. You could also change the file association to point to acrobat.exe (acrobat)  rather than acrord32.exe (reader) - and that should bring up the full version when you click on  file in windows explorer. Creating a shortcut to acrobat.exe should also run that specific program so you get what you click on.   Steve Harris ----- Original Message ----- From: Pat Moyer To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, June 25, 2003 2:38 PM Subject: [PDF-Basics] Reader vs Distiller This may seem like a silly question - but - here goes.  I have Adobe Acrobat 5.0 and Adobe Reader as separate desktop shortcuts.  When I launch a pdf for editing, it always opens it in Reader not Abobe Acrobat.  I have to keep logging off and them back on to get to Adobe Acrobat.  I have tried opening Acrobat from the desktop, but it still launches Reader.  I know it is something easy in my set-up.  I need to keep reader available to check how my customers see  my documents.  Any ideas?
