Hi Tore,
I have spent a couple of hours hunting down Adobe Reader related files
scattered about in my computers Library folder and others but to no avail. I
suspect that the root cause is the newish Adobe Acrobat Reader DC which I
briefly tried while attempting to solve an unrelated problem with a PDF file.
This was the app that was inserting its self into my apps revBrowser control,
I have removed Acrobat Reader DC and downloaded the Adobe cleaner app but my
instance of revBrowser still requests that I locate Adobe Acrobat and fails to
display the local PDF file. I have also experimented with the Browser widget
and get the same result when running LC 9.02.
So it seems that having removed Adobe Acrobat Reader DC that my code is unable
to display PDFs in either a RevBrowser or a Browser Widget when running in
LC9.02. I also suspect there is a subtle buffering problem when running the
same code in LC 8 and earlier as the app stops displaying PDFs after a source
file is moved; I am still experimenting to see if I can determine exactly what
is causing the problem.
Regards
Simon Knight
