I think they started leaving it running because it was so slow to start up in ver 6. That improved with ver 7. This is a bit brutal, but if they're all running XP, the "taskkill" utility is available: taskkill /T /IM AcroRd32.exe Problem is knowing when Reader has finished printing before attempting to kill it. Pdfp uses Reader's DDE interface, so waits for printing to complete before killing Reader off.
