Adobe Reader for PPC is probably built for QVGA (320x240 pixels) and not adapted to VGA screen (640x480 pixels). It shows every original pixel as 4 pixels which results in letter "out of focus". It happens with almost all PDF files and even with original PDF help file from Adobe. I cannot tell the reason for these exceptions which display correctly.

Is there a patch for Adobe Acrobat PPC on VGA screens? I found this situation e.g. in ArcPad (Mobile GIS) - you had to run a patch.

Thanks for help!
