This is *normal* UNIX file handling. Yes, ps2pdf does indeed recreate
the PDF from scratch and unlinks the old PDF's inode(s). Acroread does
not know that (thus no messages), and no it does not lock the file,

Hi,
The problem here is that Windows has problems in implementing
propper file locking symantics. On the side of acroread.exe, it
should not assume documents are static on disk. Not sure if something
like file alteration monitor exists on Windows. What is needed is a
