RFE: favourites / favorites for Reader

[Jon_S...@adobeforums.com]

[If this has been added to Reader 8.0, please disregard. I'm using Reader on Linux, and the latest we've got so far is 7.0.9. And if there's already a way of doing it within standalone Reader, please don't hit me -- but do say how!]

One thing I'd really like, as someone who's knee-deep in chip datasheets and schematics all day, would be a Favo[u]rites feature within Reader, something similar to a browser's Bookmarks facility. In other words, I'd like to designate certain PDFs on my filesystem as ones I visit frequently, and want to "bookmark" for quick access. If I could set up sub-folders within the list, so that I can classify the docs, that would be superb.

The "recently viewed" list doesn't do that job: it only takes a few read-once PDFs to clear out all my most-viewed docs, and it doesn't have all that many entries anyway.

Yes, I know I could set up a file folder with a bunch of symlinks (shortcuts, for Windows users) to the docs, but setting it up and maintaining it's a real pain, and it's the wrong solution.

Pretty please?
