Good news, but I would welcome a (speed review) compared to 7.0.8 before I go through the trouble of installing the package. So, if anybody is using it and is willing to share some experiences, that would be much appreciated. Best wishes, Taco

So, if anybody is using it and is willing to share some experiences, that would be much appreciated. As first impression, it 's better than 7.0.8. Installation was clean on Ubuntu 7.04i386, and it looks more clean also.

Seems faster. Most importantly to me: it's SDI now. Unfortunately: still no reload of files when they changed, which is boring with the edit/compile/view cycle... Olivier

I don't know nothing about Reader on Linux, but with Acrobat Pro on OSX the number of prepress related bugs did increase, und the new GUI is at least a matter of taste, if not hardly usable.
