Isn't the first message the most informative? There it says that it doesn't support all those advanced new pdf features after Pdf1.3 :o

Curt:
-and what pdf version are we using now?

Ath:
Depends on the Pdf creator you're using, I guess, but here's the wiki page on the subject: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_Document_Format

Adobe's PDF specifications

Adobe changed the PDF specification several times and continues to develop new specifications with new versions of Adobe Acrobat. There have been nine versions of PDF with corresponding Acrobat releases:

    * (1993) – PDF 1.0 / Acrobat 1.0
    * (1994) – PDF 1.1 / Acrobat 2.0
    * (1996) – PDF 1.2 / Acrobat 3.0
    * (1999) – PDF 1.3 / Acrobat 4.0
    * (2001) – PDF 1.4 / Acrobat 5.0
    * (2003) – PDF 1.5 / Acrobat 6.0
    * (2005) – PDF 1.6 / Acrobat 7.0
    * (2006) – PDF 1.7 / Acrobat 8.0
    * (2008) – PDF 1.7, Adobe Extension Level 3 / Acrobat 9.0
    * (2009) – PDF 1.7, Adobe Extension Level 5 / Acrobat 9.1

The ISO standard ISO 32000-1:2008 is equivalent to Adobe's PDF 1.7.
Adobe declared that it is not producing a PDF 1.8 Reference.

PDF 2.0

A new version of PDF standard is under development under the name ISO/NP 32000-2 - Document management—Portable document format—Part 2: PDF 2.0 (as of January 2011). Adobe has submitted the Adobe Extension Level 5 and Adobe Extension Level 3 specifications to ISO for inclusion into the next version of the ISO 32000 specification. Adobe declared they have all been accepted for part 2 of ISO 32000

This may not do 'everything', but I find I'm using it more and more! Especially the pdf preview(Free Version)

Look for the Free version if you're 'short of cash'  ;D
