Adobe has released Adobe Reader 8.0. Adobe considers it a critical update to version 7 for security reasons.
Get Adobe Reader 8.0.
Caution – Adobe will install Yahoo! Toolbar by default unless you specifically deselect (disable) that. I do choose not install Yahoo! Toolbar or Google Toolbar. I use IE7 and avoid the extra "overhead" that the toolbars introduce, to say nothing about possible glitches or conflicts.
After you install it, select "Edit", then "Preferences" from the menu bar and check every single option. Many options are now located in different places from the prior versions. For example, you can choose to set the default display of a "document" to single page, continuous. I prefer that to the unnatural page "jump" that happens by default when you reach the bottom of a PDF's page.
Also, a toolbar button for copying text in a PDF is not present by default. Check out each option. Experiment. You can always change it back.
