Hopefully they won't spread Acrobat Reader's worst features to Flash players.

I agree that this sucks ... but reader itself does a great job for printers (keeps the optimal quality while making the display on screen very easy for clients to see).
I always hated acrobat thought. I hope they don't do any crap like that in flash.
