Re: PDF viewing slow.

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

I have figured out that Adobe Acrobat 8 does not work very well on Terminal
Services. I downgraded to Adobe Acrobat 7 and PDF viewing is fast and
smooth. My advice is get rid of 8.0 and go to 7.0.

I have exactly the same issue.

Acrobat 8, installed on a 2003 TS.

The scrolling of PDF files is very slow - the user scrolls and then it
takes a long time to repaint the page.

I can reproduce the problem by coming in remotely to the console
session (mstsc /console) but I suspect it will be silky smooth if I
look at it in person on the console.

All users are remote from the TS - coming in to the server over a 1mb
symmetrical link.

It looks exactly the same as if you open a hi-res image or go to a
graphics intensive website. It would appear logical to me that
graphics don't work well on a TS since they can't be compressed, so
you have to send all the image information over the wire and it takes
a while to come down.

I have just tested it logged on to a computer on the LAN and then
connecting to the Terminal Server, there is no problem.

The question mark for me is whether Acrobat is displaying the PDF in
too high a resolution, and if there is any way we can turn this down.
