[SLUG] Adobe PDF Format

[Ian Eade]

I am experiencing problems opening PDF documents and have been told that
the documents I have been given need to be opened using the latest
version of Adobe Acrobat, namely v7.

I was under the impression that Adobe PDF was backwards compatible (for
basic reading at least) and this seems to be supported by the fact that
I can open newly created PDF documents using my current version 4.

I have not upgraded from v4 as all I want to do is view/print PDF's and
everything above v4 seems like bloatware with features I don't need.

Can anyone shed any light on Adobe PDF (backwards) compatibility?

Ian
