(BUZZZZER!!) I'm sorry, that's incorrect. Nice try though. =] Tell them what they've won Jake! __________________________________________________________________ -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] This is a stupid question, since I know very little about PDF, but just asking from a normal file save/save as topic. If you were to "change" something under 5.0, and then save it, not save as(since that seems to not be available), would it then change the version number to 1.4? This would then allow you to re-open it in 5.0, change back whatever you changed to begin with, and then use save-as? _________________________________________________________________ Max Wyss wrote: > Look at the Document Info...
