Toolbar Icons Not Working

[Ed Cryer]

I used Foxit for a while. I went back to Adobe. Much better.

My biggest gripe was that images in some documents would flash
(flicker, as if in a constant redraw loop) all the time. With other
documents, the flickering would only occur during scrolling. There
were other annoyances, as well, so I went back to Adobe, which just
plain works.

I've never noticed anything like that. But still, I went in search of
some guidance and hit a recommendation for Adobe;

OK, I'll go back to Adobe.

I have both readers installed, because only Adobe seems to work for some web
PDFs, while Foxit works better for me to fill-in fields on a local PDF.

BTW, that article is from 2008. How old is that in computer years?

Or maybe replace the Adobe Reader with Foxit Reader; which is much better.

This illustrates the point. Nowadays web browsers can display (and print)
PDF files, and some other software too, as well as the original Adobe Reader
and other Adobe apps. When the OP complained the PDF toolbar did not work,
he did not say which software he was using.

To All Respondents,

I did have Adobe Reader v. 10.1.4.38 installed! I downloaded v. 11 and
installed same. I then went back to my original link:
http://help.acdsystems.com/en/acdsee-15/acdsee-15.pdf and the icons
appeared as before but this time, all icons worked as advertized! It's
likely that I had inadvertently made an incorrect setting in v.10 that
caused the icons to not work!

Thanks to you all for your help!

It might be a bug in the older version, so maybe it's not your fault,
even inadvertently, at all

I've got them both installed and I've been comparing them side by side.
I've gone back to Foxit; definitely superior here on my set-up; clearer
by far, smaller and quicker, and doesn't rouse in me my deep-seated
discontent with bloat-ware stuff.

I hadn't noticed the 2008 year. If I had I would have looked for
something a bit more recent. But now that I've made my own assessment
I'm sticking.
