<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>There's 2 options you can perform to resolve the
issue. I used the first option to prevent problems with plugins, but it's your
choice. The first option I found on the Adobe Forums. The second option was
given to me by the Ai2 technical support.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>Option01: Delete the AI2Z_PDFAHOI.api plugin
from the Adobe Reader plugins folder and create a new folder with the same name
as the plugin to prevent the plugin from being created in the Adobe Reader
plugins folder.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>Option02: 1. Go to the C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\reader\plug ins folder and delete the <BR>file
Ai2PdfAhoi.api <BR>2. Start Adobe <BR>3. Go to Edit > Preferences >
General > Uncheck Use only Certified Plug ins <BR>4. Then go to Document
under categories and uncheck Show document in it's own window<BR>5. Close Adobe
<BR>6. Re-Start Adobe and try to read a document with the AppReader. (not sure
if this step is <BR>necessary)<BR>7. Close Adobe and copy the Ai2zPdfAhoi.api
file from the C:\Program Files\ZoomText 9.0\<BR>inst folder into the C:\Program
Files\Adobe\Reader 8.0\reader\plug ins.<BR>8. Start Adobe </FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>Like I said, I like the first option better than
the second option because you don't need to uncheck the "Use only Certified
Plugins" option. Option01 is easier too.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV dir=ltr><FONT face=Arial>This does work! After doing this Adobe Reader will
work flawlessly.</FONT></DIV>

conflict<BR></FONT><BR></DIV>
<DIV>
<DIV>Anyone else encountered a conflict between ZoomText and Adobe Reader
8.1? I haven't seen this come up on any of the lists so far. Because of security
problems with Reader 8.0, we're needing to install 8.1.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>They're each using the plugin file ai2z_pdfahoi.api, which causes an
"Invalid plugin detected in Reader" message in Reader...which then crashes. This
occurs when both are installed to the same machine, even when both are not in
use at the same time.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We've found two potential fixes:</DIV>
<DIV>From Adobe's forums: <A
href="http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc41b85">http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc41b85</A></DIV>
<DIV>From AISquared's Knowledge Base: <A
href="http://www.aisquared.com/Support/KBdetail.cfm?ID=178">http://www.aisquared.com/Support/KBdetail.cfm?ID=178</A></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We tried the first one and it didn't work in our environment. Reader
re-installs the plugin.</DIV>
<DIV>Trying out the second one - will keep you updated on progress.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We're running ZoomText 9.0, trying to run Reader 8.1, on a Windows XP in a
Novell network.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>If anyone has a better idea, our IT staff would DEARLY love to hear it.
They came to me not for my technical expertise, but because I have access to
y'all!</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks in advance!</DIV>
