I have XPhome, and have been using PDF995 for ages - have a couple of
hundred pdf files and am reading them successfully with Adobe Reader,
Version 6. I keep getting an offer to update my Adobe Reader but haven't
done so for fear it will in some way might ruin all those PDF files. Has
anyone on this list updated Adobe Reader (to I believe its 7) and found
existing PDF995 files still working nicely?
