TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I think whoever you spoke to is wrong. My Adobe Acrobat 4.0 for Windows box
lists Windows NT with service pack 3 or later as a supported OS. Plus, I've
used PDFMaker successfully in WinNT. I recommend you call them back.
Acrobat 4.0 is not supported for WinME (Millenium, not Middle Eastern ;?),
maybe that is what they meant?
As for the original issue, after using NT and 2000, I came to the conclusion
that my IT staff had trouble supporting my OS, and my needs, and so
requested and installed Windows 98. If your IT staff is having trouble
managing profiles and permissions in NT/2000, I recommend Win98 as a
reasonable alternative that gives you better control of your working
environment. (I advise you not go to WinME.)
Cheers,
