Hi

Before everybody tells me that this is a known problem and that I should have searched the knowledgebase, I did and I found this one:
 <http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/332222.html>

Well, yes I had Version 6.0, so I just updated to 7.0.8, but still not working.

I tried on two different scenarios, first I tried a file like this:
C:\Test\ChineseCharacters.pdf (just think of it as chinese characters, the board messes those up.)
and then:
C:\Test\ChineseCharacterFolder\Test.pdf (here too, the ChineseCharacter think, mean that I do have non Latin-1 Characters here.

On both files I got a message "There was an error opening this document.? The filename, directory name, or volume label syntax is incorrect."

I don't have a clue whats going wrong, I believed it should work fine now, but it doesn't.
