They should give you a specific bug report they are tracking this problem with. If someone asks me, about some S/W I wrote, if something that should work or not, and it doesn't work consistently, it's a major problem for me because "sometimes" is the worst answer possible. It's worse than if something is busted because then I can fix it. The answer should either "we support this but it is currently borked. Here is the issue number we are tracking by" or "We have never officially supported this feature. It worked by accident until now. Sorry" If this is something that Adobe specifically advertises, I would write to the CEO. False advertising and all that nasty stuff. It's not as if this is free or cheap S/W. You guys paid a lot of money for this crapware. Would you accept an expensive camera that sometimes work and the manufacturer says too bad it only work 80% of the time? $10 camera marked "as is" from a yardsale, sure. [Yes, this is a pet peeve. Ever increasing level of S/W mediocrity due to horrible (and unnecessary) complexity over the last 25 years and people are conditioned to accept this mediocrity and pay happily through the nose. Come to think of it, since the advent of the PC and that unamed company based in Redmond.] Regards, Spencer On Jul 12, 2010, at 19:51, Richard Man wrote: > Whoa, thanks for the warning.
