Eh. There are loads of excellent viewers that are plenty compatible and very fast. Adobe is the *last* program I use for PDF. SumatraPDF, Nitro, PDFXchange, Foxit. Adobe just doesn’t want to spend the money to do a proper reboot for ancient code ala Microsoft IE -> Edge.

Don't use Acrobat. Sumatra pdf reader does the job just as we & is much leaner.

You and your hipster PDF talk. I spent 2 hours reviewing a 25-page doc from a homeowner-association lawyer (I'm on the board). Every line of indentation was done with carriage returns followed by tabs.

And I assume that the legal profession is to blame for this, as with fax machines.

It makes having something editable by multiple users impossible
