[MacTUG] Adobe Reader and the SBOD

[Steve Hellyer]

Hi Dani, Think the details of possible work around here....


 From http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.59b731b3
"• Edit AcroEFGPro90.xml and AcroEFGDist90.xml which can be found in  
Contents > MacOS within the Acrobat and Distiller apps respectively.  
Scroll down until you get to the part that references SelfHeal
• For every line that references SelfHeal, change the "Requires" tags  
from "YES" to "NO" for all of the file resources.
I was able to confirm that this fix works (at least for Acrobat Pro -  
haven't tried Distiller yet, but it should work), and to apply it  
successfully to other machines using Radmind. Yippee!!!!!! "

Feel free to contact local Adobe rep. to express your concerns on this  
self healing "design". ;-)
