Anyone tested Adobe CS4 products in Win7?

 

[JeeperDon]

Adobe Acrobat in CS4 works, but does not make a PDF Print Device as it should (on W7x64 anyway). Other Adobe CS4 apps Photoshop and Dreamweaver are fine.

 

[veteran]

Used vistabootpro to organise dual booting - works
Used synctoy 2 to co-ordinate folders between the two systems - works quite well but Kaspersky 2009 screws up the Vista side.
Installed:
Avira Premium Security Suite - one small hiccup but is now working well. (Much smoother than Kaspersky and PCPro magazines A-list recommendation)
Office 2007 - Enterprise edition - works really well. OneNote works beautifully
New version of Google Earth - seems fine
Paperport 11 - works well
Windows Mobile Device Centre - to co-ordinate my HTC TYII phone and the pc - works better than it did in Vista
All hardware drivers worked (Canon Scanner, HP Printer)
RealTek audio manager took a bit of sorting out but now works well
Didn't use adobe reader - hate the bloated program! instead I'm using PDF-Viewer which does a good job and installed with no problems
Jack Bridge v4.01 - this minority user program installed easily

Hi Ian
So far I have installed Avira Antivir, Spyzooka and Acronis TrueImage without problems.

edit: I've moved the question in your post here to keep the thread on topic Firefox profiles

Ive not experienced any problems other than a few video glitches
I'm not for sure - Im thinking its because of my hardware 2.0 Windows Index
Everything other than video is over 3.9 Windows Index
