Subject:	SCOUG-Help: PDF Preference | Powerpoint

Content Type: text/plain

Hi All --

Very quiet here lately !

In your opinion, is there any reason to prefer one one
of these over the others ?

Innotek's Acrobat 4.05 release (which I'm
still using)

Innotek's Acrobat 5.1 Preview (released Q1 of
'04, and I've found no more recent
release of this development)

Lucide (still a beta, I believe)

It is looking to me like development efforts ran out
of gas on the Innotek offering, and have now shifted
over to Lucide. If Lucide was demoed at a SCOUG
meeting, it was probably a meeting I didn't manage to
make.

Incidentally, I just played a Powerpoint presentation
in Open Office -- probably the first time I've had
occasion to do that. Took me a couple minutes just to
find the Start button ! It ran just fine . . . unless
there was supposed to be an audio track (don't think
so), because there wasn't any. Can they include that
on the Dark Side ? Does OO provide for it as well ?

Anyway, I was impressed that we could just grab the
file and run it.
