5. The Enter key and the space bar work differently in the accessibility settings wizard on Windows and Mac OS. On Windows, both the Enter key and the space bar close the wizard. On Mac OS, the Enter key advances the wizard to the next page, and the space bar closes the wizard.

6. Windows XP and 2000 include Microsoft Magnifier, an accessibility tool that was the interface. When started, this tool turns on accessibility in Adobe Reader until you close it. Every time you open a PDF document, the following message appears: “Please wait while the document is prepared for reading.” To reduce the time it takes to prepare a PDF document for reading, set the page document preference to read only currently visible pages in the reading preferences. Setting the reading order preferences to the reading order in the raw print stream also speeds up this process, but may interfere with the magnifier functionality.

7. To improve the startup time and performance of Adobe Reader, please defragment your hard drive using Disk Utility before installing it. You can use the disk included with your operating system or a utility. Hard drives become fragmented with normal use (for example, installing and uninstalling applications, adding and deleting files). Over time, the computer cannot allocate contiguous blocks of free space and saves files in parts on the hard drive, increasing the time required to open these files. The hard drive rebinds files and improves performance.

8. If you scan a PDF into Notepad with a scanner, the resulting data may contain null bytes or illegal characters (characters that cannot be typed on the keyboard). This data can execute desktop shortcuts that cause windows to open. The problem does not occur with all scanners. no solution

12. If you paste the character U+3400 in the search field and perform a search, the search fails even if the character exists in the PDF document you are searching for. The same applies to U+3500, U+3600, and U+3700. Type the character U+3400 into the search field instead of pasting it.

13. If you install Adobe Acrobat Elements 6.0 after installing the full version of Adobe Reader 7.0, you may encounter an error in Acrobat Elements when you try to convert a file to PDF and ask if you want to run the installer in repair mode. If you click Yes, the same error will appear the next time you try to convert a file to PDF in Acrobat Elements. Install Acrobat Elements 6.0 before installing Adobe Reader 7.0.7 to ensure that both applications are installed in the same folder. (Acrobat Elements 6.0 does not allow you to specify the installation location.) Note that installing Adobe Reader 7.0.7 does not remove Adobe Reader 6.0, which Adobe Elements installs in the same folder. This installation of Adobe Reader 6.0 (unlike the download version) does not interfere with the functionality of Adobe Reader 7.0.7.
