>Unfortunately, Microsoft uses the 'unsupported' command-line options when invoking the MS Fax APIs and sending a PDF file. 

I think this is very unlikely. Much more likely that Microsoft uses
ShellExecute which looks up the verb actions in the registry. Adobe
may have set up the verb actions to use the command line options, of
course, and they can do that because they only have to support the
current version.

There do seem to have been cases where the registry settings for the
verb actions have ended up wrong.
