What are the differences between Acrobat 7.0 Professional and Acrobat
7.0 Standard? Are they significant for the casual user who just wants
to produce .pdf's from Microsoft Word?

from I've read in the past couple few months, they both stink to high heaven
as does ver. 6. If your doing casual, I'd stick to ver5.

My 2 cents........Dan

There are tons of free pdf converters available to download; Google "pdf
converters". I use Primo.

It installs on your system as a printer. After I create a word or publisher
file, I click File-Print and chose the pdf converter. It opens the document
in Reader. I then Save-As and save it to My Documents as a pdf file.

If you're just looking to create pdf files I don't think you need Acrobat.

But, you can't edit the pdf file. I have to go back to my original document
and edit there, then go throught the "print" process again.

Just a thought,

if you're using Word 2007 get the free MS PDF plugin and it could not be
easier to knock out PDFs from Word; if you're not using Word 2007 and PDF
conversion is important, consider upgrading .. it's a lot smoother and
faster than using Acrobat .. assuming you don't need all the stuff Acrobat
does

As between Acro 7 Pro & Standard, you have to know what "casual" means ...
if Pro exclusively has even one feature you need I guess you're not as
casual as you thought you were ....
