    Hi
    
    In http://www.adobe.com/prodindex/acrobat/sysreq.html#nt, I see no
    mention of Alpha as a supported platform.  Does it work?
    
    Thanks

    About a year ago, I contacted Adobe and suggested that they should take
    a look at supporting Alpha, at least in terms of Adobe Acrobat Reader.
    I received a polite response back that they did not think there would
    be much interest nor had they much experience with Windows NT, let
    alone DIGITAL systems.
    Maybe now, they should think again.
    In any event, I am now quite happy to have installed Windows NT V4.0
    and FX32, as I now have a working Adobe Acrobat reader.

RE: .13

Adobe *are* thinking again about Acrobat Reader native on Alpha NT.

RE: -.1

I also wrote to Adobe about this, and received a polite rebuff.

We're shipping our online docs for our WinNT Alpha product in Acrobat
(PDF) format. We have to include FX!32. It would certainly be nice for
Adobe to port Acrobat to the Alpha. 

I'd like to know more about this, if there's any more info available.
When did they indicate that they might port to Alpha? Recently?

Thanks,

Art
