Perhaps they just need to completely de-install the Acrobat plugin. When a PDF is in a Safari widow, there is a fade-in/fade-out type of array of things you can click on at the bottom of the window (not good UI, IMO, but there it is). You can choose to open in Preview, Save, or increase/decrease zoom. If you do nothing then the array fades out, but reappears if you mouse down there. As I say, I've not had, or needed, Acrobat Reader on a Mac for some 10 years. Trouble is, all these sites telling you to download this PDF and "needs Acrobat Reader" which is complete cock. > Anyway, I realize this topic is now slightly off list. True but I think you needed a rant :-) -- Cheers -- Tim
