That is a major pet peeve of mine as well. I hate it when people/
sites state that you have to have "Acrobat to read this document."
Baloney. You have to have a PDF reader/viewer to view the file; of
which there are many.
Another pet peeve is that people refer to Adobe's free PDF viewer as
"Acrobat." Acrobat is the for-cost PDF creations/editing application.
"Adobe Reader" is the free reader/viewer.
