Hi. Thanks to everybody who chimed in. I suspect nothing's going to happen, but that's how things are: our interface uses the term Acrobat. It drives me a bit nutty. Louise made me chuckle with this: On Sep-22-2011, at 11:59 , Louise Hewitt wrote: > Why would you ever use Acrobat file? That's like saying Word document right? ;D of course there was a time when a Word file could only be opened by Word. That seems to be changing, though it's still fundamentally true. The app and the document were the same thing. The PDF format always put the document first, even if it took a while for a good selection of 3rd party apps to be able to read them. Anyway, thanks again. Over and out for now. -- Skot Nelson [email protected] "In anything at all, perfection is finally attained not when there is no longer anything to add, but when there is no longer anything to take away." -- Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, Wind, Sand and Stars ------------ 2012 IA Summit March 21 - 25, 2012 Hyatt Regency New Orleans, LA ----- When replying, please *trim your post* as much as possible. *Plain text, please; NO Attachments Searchable Archive at http://www.info-arch.org/lists/sigia-l/ ________________________________________ Sigia-l mailing list -- post to: [email protected] Changes to subscription: http://mail.asis.org/mailman/listinfo/sigia-l
