Recently I've had to do some projects involving Adobe Acrobat reader - open the PDF, take the text, transplant it into a design. Easy huh? Well, not so easy...
I downloaded the latest version of Acrobat Reader 7 but it wouldn't install and I didn't have my Acrobat 4 disc to hand, so I did a quick trawl if the Net and found oldversion.com "because newer is not always better"
Couldn't agree more.
Sometimes new features are just too much - the GUI becomes more (im)mature (personally I reckon a lot of GUIs get "dumbed down" to cater for less technically-minded people) the extra buttons are just useless, the program becomes bloatware, old tools disappear...
So grabbing an executable version of Acrobat 4 was awesome.
Thanks oldversion.com :)
