Hi Audrey,
I think what the person at Adobe was trying to say was that some documents,
though they look like they are organized as tables and such, don't have
coding that tells Acrobat Reader about this structure. All Acrobat Reader
sees is text, spaces and returns; there are no codes identifying the text
as being in a table. This is unstructured text.
In such a case, Acrobat Reader has to guess what the structure of the
document should be. Apparently the access plug-in designed for Acrobat
Reader 4 was better at guessing how to organize unstructured text than the
new version is. The person at Adobe was saying that in a later release,
they should consider using this older method to guess about unstructured
text, rather than the newer, less effective one.
I hope this makes sense.
Regards,
Anna
