I read the EULA (Reader_WWEULA-en_US-20040915_1630) that is in the C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Reader\Legal\Adobe Reader\7.0.0\en_US folder on my computer. I do find language like this: (Section 2.5) ...You are not authorized to integrate or use the Software with any other software, plug-in or enhancement which uses or relies upon the Software when converting or transforming PDF files into other file formats (e.g., a PDF file into a TIFF, JPEG, or SVG file). You are not authorized to integrate or use the Software with any (a) plug-in software not developed in accordance with the Adobe Integration Key License Agreement or (b) other software or enhancement to programmatically interface with the Software for the purpose of (i) saving data locally (on the same Computer), except when allowed through the use of Document Feature(s) that have been activated using enabling technology from Adobe, (ii) creating a file that contains data (e.g., an XML or comments file), or (iii) saving modifications to a PDF file. I don't see where this language applies to or supports your statement that "Reader's EULA, however, prevents you from doing this locally, stating that you can't use Reader on the Same PC that creates PDF files". The legalese of the EULA is fairly daunting, so it's definitely possible that what you're saying is right in front of me, but I don't see it. Can you please point me to the section of the EULA where this is stated? Many thanks for your answers thus far and those to come.
