Also, the concept of a "review" in general is to state your opinion. This repackaged executable simply makes using it a little less painful. But this repackaged executable significantly removes the headache-inducing bullcrap that normally comes with the "legal" version of this application.Īdobe Reader is *necessary* in the professional world (due to ignorance. Nowhere did I condemn the use of alternative PDF readers, or say that this program was any better. I hate Adobe Reader with a passion, but this software is far from useless. It's like web design and having to test pages in IE. And they don't always look 100% the same from application to application. Adobe Reader *has* to be my main testing application, because all of the customers I distribute my PDFs to are going to be opening them with Adobe. But I do XML/XSLT publishing for a living and I create a lot of PDFs. The truth is that as much as I hate to admit, Adobe Reader is the definitive PDF reader. Exactly how I used it is moot, because *any* way that I use it is in violation of Adobe's EULA. Submitting a review implies I have downloaded this application and used it. But the fact of the matter is it is hosted here, on this page, and I am reviewing the application and its uses. This repackaged executable is in violation of Adobe's EULA that I agree with. DeriseD: It doesn't matter what I deploy or where.
