Thanks for the info Art. It may be that the FM8 installation is the real issue. The way our software installation process works is that everybody installs all "standard" apps from a server that IT manages, and it's a very safe bet that the CD images there are the original versions from Adobe. Just one of the prices you pay for working for a Fortune 500, I guess...
