This is silly, the previous post blames Vista. I do not concur. I think it is adobe's responsibility. That is also the conclusion of Microsoft MVP's on <http://www.vistax64.com/vista-security/62190-cannot-save-pdf-files.html> It seems to me that Adobe should have a fully tested and compatible version of Reader for 64bit Vista by now. According to Engadget Vista launched January 9, 2007, that is almost 2 years ago and it was available for developers long before that. As a programmer it is my job to make my software run on whatever operating system I am programming for. I do not get to blame my software's improper operation on the platform I'm programming to. I would encourage Adobe to quickly fix this bug in their software. In the meantime I'm sure most of you have discovered this work around, but just in case you haven't you can download and install cutepdf writer. This program states that it supports Vista 32 and 64bit. Amazing how a small company like this can pull this off, when Adobe doesn't seem to be able to and doesn't contradict forum posts blaming Microsoft. You can get CutePDF writer here <http://www.cutepdf.com/products/cutepdf/Writer.asp> Unfortunately you will have to print from Adobe Reader to a .pdf file using this utility, which is not nearly as efficient as the Save As feature in Reader.
