schestowitz@Ted, sorry I wasn’t clear. there was no criticism to using non-Adobe PDF readers; indeed, I’d strongly recommend using Free Software PDF readers: my home page has had a pdfreaders.org banner pretty much forever.Feb 27 05:44
schestowitzThe problem is that, just like using browsers without Javascript, or with Javascript disabled, has failed to counter the proliferation of increasingly Javascript-mandatory web sites, I suspect the same process may take place when it comes to PDF files, such that at some point most PDF readers will be compelled to support this, and most users won’t even try to open PDF files without allowing Javascript in them.Feb 27 05:44
schestowitzMy point is that we have to be far more vocal in opposing the turning of data files into trojan horses, through the hiding of proprietary malware inside them.Feb 27 05:44
