Actually Angus, this is another difference with Ghostview and
Acrobat. Acrobat did not acknowledge the second page at all. It said
it was a one page document. So the second page did not exist, even
for viewing, in Acrobat...There are clearly differences between
Ghostview and Acrobat...and that is understandable...different
programmers and different budgets...
Meanwhile, technology marches on. The new version of FileMaker now
incorporates Acrobat features so that PDF files can be embedded into
the FileMaker database...so the PDF format might become more readily
accessible to users, as time goes by, built into other software,
without necessarily purchasing Acrobat per se...so the PDF format
itself is quite valuable.
