Adobe Reader 7.0.1 is free software that lets you view and print Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) files on a variety of hardware and operating system platforms. Adobe Reader 7.0.1 is the newest version of the familiar Adobe Acrobat Reader software. It also replaces Adobe Acrobat eBook Reader, software for viewing high-fidelity eBooks on your notebook or desktop computer.

Re: Adobe 7.0.1 out

hmmm, each successive version gets more bloated and this just for a PDF reader!

I'll stick with version 5 as long as it works!

Cheers for that, although since installing V7 I think I'll go back to v6.
As above, it seems to be bloated with unnessary stuff & even adverts.

Re: Adobe 7.0.1 out

Thanks for that :)

Just as an aside note I use foxit pdf reader where I can from here :-
http://www.foxitsoftware.com/pdf/rd_intro.php

But while this is much quicker than adobe it isn't quite %100 compatible yet, so I use both :)

before now to try and speed pdfs up, adobe really needs to get the bloat out of its software.

Agreed, my ageing laptop struggles with Acrobat these day, went back to V5 and she flies again!

I found 6 to be bloatier (if that's a word) and certainly buggier than 7, but that's on my big PC with lots of memory, so it's not a good comparison. V5 for me was by far and away the most professional bit of kit....now they just want to install Yahoo-bloody-Toolbar on my comp - becuase as we all know Yahoo and Acrobat files go hand in hand ;)

Too right. Same thing applies to Real One player and Apple "Quick"time. Total chug-a-lug and bloat for what should be a simple task.
