RE: [OT] Adobe Reader 8 and Vista...
This is very similar to problems I have had at work. Some bright spark
(who
shall forever remain nameless) decided to require Adobe 8 for one of our
proprietary systems, and as a result no-one was able to print correctly.
Sometimes Adobe crashed, sometimes the spooler service crashed (both on the
local machine and print server). After much discussion, searching and
fiddling we worked out that Adobe Reader 8 has a crap print system which
does not work correctly with PostScript print drivers, and moving all of
our
printers to PCL drivers sorted the problem.
This is now a known Adobe bug which they are supposedly working to fix, but
is NOT just tied to MS Vista.
Hope this helps someone else.

Oh well - I think that's another Vista incompatibility to chalk up. ;-)
