[Web4lib] Acrobat Reader v.7 and DRM

[Peter MacDonald]

We are considering upgrading Acrobat Reader on our library's public 
computers from v.6 to v.7, but we are concerned about any access 
permissions problems that the DRM ("Digital Rights Management") 
capabilities of v.7 might have on our computer users when they try to 
access subscription databases through the Web.

Have any of your libraries installed Acrobat Reader v.7 and had more 
problems with DRM than with v. 6?

Thanks,
Peter
