PDF Problems?Older versions of Adobe Acrobat are known to be incapable of reading certain standard-conformant PDF files. Following versions of Adobe Acrobat have been reported to be able to read the PDF files provided here:
The standard free PDF readers (Ghostscript, gv, and xpdf) do not have these limitations. Ghostscript, at least, is available for the Windows platform. Unfortunately, both versions of Ghostscript prior to about 6.21 (ie, still in beta) and current versions of pdflatex emit such files (some of the problems were fixed in Aladdin Ghostscript's 6.0 release). There's not much we can do about it until updated versions of PDF writing software that cater to Acrobat's idiosyncracies become generally available. In particular, pdflatex (which we use for generating preformatted versions of Texinfo documents) still generates such files.
