Important thread regarding PDFs on RPG.NET

[Steve Wieck]

Thanks.

I guess I won't be buying any PDFs from them then.

It will work with OSX actually. Please note this item from the DriveThruRPG.com torubleshooting page though:

This is a known problem with Internet Explorer for Macintosh and older Versions of AOL software. This error is due to an incorrect implementation of encryption in Microsoft's Internet Explorer for Macintosh and older and older versions of AOL.
The only true solution is to use another free web browser such as: Netscape, Safari (if you are running OS X, this should already be installed), or Firefox. If you are an AOL user you can try to upgrade to the most current version AOL provides.

Huh? No, you misunderstand. The question was about using MacOS X's "Print to PDF" function to 'print' another copy of the file to a brand new (and un-DRMed) PDF.

I don't care as much about the DRM. I do buy songs from the iTunes Music Store. The real kicker for me is having to use Acrobat Reader. I much prefer preview now that it doesn't suck in Panther.
