Does that useless query at first character case 1.

I never get that because I stick with v2.3. It doesn't seem to have any
relevant limitations.

Maybe oldversion.com has it.

They do. Hope their note that version is Win2K compatible; they have
a habit of telling lies WRT compatibility.

Could someone remind me please?

On Linux, at least, there's evince. It seems to now handle all flavors of
documents, and is faster than Adobe's reader.

I have the professional level Foxit PhantomPDF, but I believe there's
a free Foxit reader.

I love to cook with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food.

I've been surprised, recently, how Ghostview still manages to tackle
PDFs that choke the free readers of the bigger Acrobat and Foxit
players.

Sometimes just determining that a document's contents is crap, is good
enough to save further time or effort. There's an awful lot of it
floating around.

An old Acrobat 4 install (on W98, W2K or XP) seems to ignore some
forms of password protection, after an upgrade in another OS suddenly
applied protection to docs that had been in unrestricted use for a
decade or more.
