OK...

The band just released our debut CD; & I created a really nice One-Sheet in Illustrator 10 (a One-Sheet being an 8.5 X 11 promotional press release for an album...containing band bio, release & contact info, gigs, assorted graphics, etc., etc.)

I saved it for the web (as a .jpg), opened it in Photoshop (6) & saved it as a .pdf (I did it this way to retain the resolution (300 ppi) but reduce the file size...when I save it as a .pdf directly from Illustrator...it's 34 MB in size. Using the above method, it's only 2.8.)

Anyway...forgetting creation method for a moment...the problem is:

If you go to any decent music distributor's website; & click on any artist's One-Sheet link...the file save/open dialog comes up; & if "open" is chosen, the .pdf opens in Adobe Reader (like it's supposed to.)

With ours...it opens right away...in some sort of Internet Explorer, Adobe Reader interface.

How do I configure (or code) our .pdf to open in Adobe Reader (solely)?

Thanks,
