Acrobat 6 will allow you to save from PDF 1.5 all the way down to 1.2, so
there is no reason not to upgrade and use the program. The horror stories
are nowhere near as bad as those with Acrobat 4.

That, however, is simply one man's opinion: mine.

Thank you.  As a web site developer and to reach the vast market of third
world countries, I will still develop in Acrobat 4.0 (PDF 1.3) for those
unfortunate not to have broadband connections and super fast equipment.  It
is those with vintage modems and computers with 14 and 15-in monitors that
still pay the bills here.

With all the horror stories (bugs) surrounding Acrobat 5 and 6, large
bloated files and other problems, I am hesitant to upgrade.

You are quite right, I will uninstall Reader 6.0 and everything may be back
to normal.

For those developers that make it 6.0 or else, my hat is off to them, they
care not about those customers that keep us going.

Thank you for the advice, it is well taken.

In the last couple of weeks, many people have complained of problems and
have indicated that they have two or more versions of Acrobat/Reader
installed on their systems, and different versions at that.

Dov Isaacs of Adobe Systems, who has lurked on these lists for years, and
who I have corresponded with for some time, provided a very stern and clear
response. Don't have both Reader and Acrobat installed on one system, and
don't have different versions of the programs installed concurrently. 

If I were you, I'd pop for the $149.00 to upgrade Acrobat 4.x to 6.x pro,
I'd deinstall both your current versions, and see if the problem still
persists.

At the least, I would remove Reader 6. But then you are working with a
five-year old program, which doesn't make any sense considering the
advancements made over the course of time.
