It serves me right...

I bit the bullet the other day, and on the recommendation of a colleague, I bought Adobe Acrobat (thus saying goodbye to a number of products that try to replicate the functionality, but fall short).

Just now, I get this message:

Licensing for this product has stopped working. You cannot use this product at this time. You must repair the problem by uninstalling and then reinstalling this product or contacting your IT administrator or Adobe customer support for help.

If I had not bought Acrobat, I would not be having this problem.

If I had bought a pirated copy of Acrobat, I would not be having this problem.

Now, with something like 8,000 words to translate this weekend, I need to track down and kill this problem before I can move forward.

Farblegarg, and other epithets.

Cheers...

Good thing I'm not procrastinating!

I am sure that, in the grand scheme of things, there is a special circle of hell reserved for document originators who, for reasons known only to themselves, embed uneditable images of text into otherwise editable documents.

What started out as me trying to do about 4,000 source words today has turned into nearly 7,000 target words (and not because I've decided to "pad" the word count).

Natalie is visiting. Enough of this.

Cheers...
