What exactly is the problem? Is it slow? Does it produce errors? Are files being corrupted? Does it simply not work? Which version of Acrobat do you use?
Can you you alternative programs or do you have to use Acrobat? Apple Preview is not a bad pdf viewer/editor/annotator/exporter..
The problem is solved. Acrobat uses a tab in Safari to display the downloaded PDF and Safari doesn’t know there’s something in the tab. Consequently, when you do a Save As from Safari’s menu the PDF is zero bytes long (Safari hasn’t got the file, Acronbat has it!).
The solution: use the Safe File from the Acrobat plug-in. The resulting PDF will have the proper length and will display fine.
