Actually, I fear it does have to do with FrameMaker's "Save as PDF"
functionality. We have repeatedly been warned by the experts who know
about these things, that it would be foolish to attempt to put Adobe
Acrobat Pro DC and Adobe Reader on the same machine -- due to sloppy
programming by these two product teams, they will access and overwrite
each other's parameter files. Therefore I need to pose the question, is
that warning still correct, or by now has it become old scoop?
The problem is that although the Chrome browser may pick up and use the
Adobe Reader as an extension to read Adobe PDF files, it definitely
does not pick up and use Acrobat Pro DC. Since we are warned not to put
Adobe Reader on a machine having the Acrobat Pro DC software, this
makes it difficult to access Acrobat PDF documents using Chrome. We
would need to have one machine dedicated to generating the PDFs and
another machine dedicated to accessing them, no?
