David DeJean reports at InformationWeek that the issues with Adobe Reader & Acrobat have been resolved with Adobe’s recent release of Adobe Reader & Acrobat 8.1.
Adobe got caught in a time trap on Vista. It shipped Acrobat 8 Professional, Acrobat 8 Standard, and Adobe Reader 8 in November, as close to Vista compatible as it could get from working with the operating system beta code, but by the time Vista finally shipped in January, I suspect some of the cargo had shifted, and Adobe’s products weren’t as compatible as the company — or I and many others — would have liked.
The new releases are pronounced to be fully compatible not only with Vista, but with Microsoft Office 2007 as well — which means they integrate with the new ribbon UI.
