Here’s a video that I did a few months ago that shows off the new Acrobat 8 features.

The new simplified UI is nice, but it’s still such a bloated monstrosity. I’ll stick with FoxIt reader since I don’t really need the advanced features.

I think I’ll wait to see if “doesn’t crash the system on shutdown every time you run it” made the feature list…

Boy this thing likes the memory. Start it up with no document open, and it’s sucking up 23Megs! Yikes.
Hopefully the Opera folks will someday make a PDF reader…

I got such hassal from AR7 that I think I’m going to stop using this brand. So I wont be upgrading. FoxIt reader does look rather good.

I’ve always been critical of Acrobat memory bloat and slow startup times but so far I’m impressed with 8. I haven’t tried the reader on its own since I’ve been using acrobat pro 8 but I’ve actually found that pdf files open very quickly for a change ever since I moved to version 8. I’ve found every previous version has been very slow in that regard.

The Adobe Reader 8 works just fine. It’s easier now to access attachments and view comments, plus there is the new “Read Out Loud” option.

RE Mary Gilmartin’s post:
I moved to FoxIt a few months back. It’s worked flawlessly. Light, quick, competent.
RE folks who’re using AR8: does it still use that fabulous piece of what-the-fug?-ware, FEAD, for installation ?
