Adobe Reader X


Recommended Posts

Impatient as I am I looked around the Adobe ftp server to see if Adobe Reader X is available yet. It is: Look under

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/mac/10.x/

for the Mac OS X version, and under

ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/win/10.x/

for the Windows version. Or just wait for it to hit the website.

Yes, it uses a lot of disk space for a PDF reader.

Dock icon:

Native UI elements? Who uses native UI elements? Not Adobe.

Nice find, Meph. I also hate programs that don't blend within the environment.

Also, what kind of performance improvements have you noticed, if any?

Installers for Windows are ~40MB, so where did you get the 500MB number from?

See the installer screenshot. 415.8 MB disk space needed.

FWIW, the OS X .dmg is 69 MB.

Downloaded MSI (44.8 MB) and Installed in Windows 7. After opeining Reader X alone memory it takes is 16 MB and after opening 662 KB file it's about 48 MB (maximized windows @ 1920x1080). On the disk Reader folder is about 151 MB (revo shows 156 MB).

Interesting that they've updated the dock icon but not the document icons, they're still in the same style as CS2. :(

actually i find it running instantly when trying to run pdfs compared to 9

never notice the splash screen

The 662kb file opened in less than second; also you can disable or enable the splash screen now in preference menu (by default its off).
