Apple Preview or Adobe Reader

2009 August 23

I haven’t had Adobe Reader running on the system for quite some time until today. I recognized missing information on a statement from a service supplier. Pictures attached. I’m wondering which application is responsible for dropping or failing to show the data. I think I’m safe in assuming the browser- (Camino) downloads the bits correctly because I am opening the same file with the two different readers. The service provider specifies the site works best with Acrobat and IE 6. The handoff to a pdf reader is the hiccup. Reader displays the information that Preview does not. It looks like time to send a bug report to Apple.
