Publish as PDF or XPS plug-in

[Charles R]

I am using Publisher 2007 on a Windows XP Pro 2002 SP3 box. When I go File >
Publish as PDF or XPS and publish a document using the default settings for
high quality printing with the "Open file after publishing" option enabled,
the PDF opens in Adobe Acrobat 4.0. In the Windows Tools > Folder Options >
File Types window, I have configured the file type PDF to open with Adobe
Reader 9.0. When I double click a PDF on the desktop, the PDF opens in Adobe
Reader 9.0. When I use the publish as PDF or XPS plug-in to create a PDF, the
PDF opens in Adobe Acrobat 4.0. Why?

=======================================
This may be a dumb question but do you have the
latest version 9.0 of Adobe Reader installed?

And...have you gone to Add-Remove programs to
see if there might be two entries for Adobe Reader
and maybe you could uninstall version 4?
