Since yesterday or sth there's a beta file out, called "AdbeRdr70_enu_full.exe".

i tried the -p"-s /v\"/qn\"" command, like for 6.01, But it didn't work. Can anybody tell me the right? You should finde the file on www.9down.com

gimme about 2 mins & ill let ya know

EDIT: will be closer 2 10 mins... the mirror they have listed on the site u posted has crappy speeds

[lieblingsbesuch]

yes, i know, sry, i could do it on my ftp, but its only 30kbps speed, too

[MCT]

run the setup file.. wait til it uncompresses all files, goto

C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 7.0\Setup Files\RdrBig\ENU

& get the msi & the data1.cab

put them in the same folder & run the msi with the /qn or /qb switch

[lieblingsbesuch]

okay, thx mate.

[MCT]

yw.. did it work? i never installed it.. but i assume it does

[lieblingsbesuch]

i think it works with /qn, i only tried it with command order yet. i'll put it in my next windows installation...

[MCT]

i just tried running the msi & everything installs ok so maybe this will be helpful 2 someone else

just case anyone is wondering too.. the speedup thing still works..

They dont. Being extra carefull. hehe

/quiet

Quiet mode, no user interaction

/q[n|b|r|f]

Sets user interface level

n - No UI

b - Basic UI

r - Reduced UI

f - Full UI (default)

/norestart

Do not restart after the installation is complete

And for those with no clue.

Download Adobe 7.0 beta from Softpedia. It has fast d/l speed.

EDIT: Their mirror for Adobe sux. D/l speed is less then 15 kB/s

[gabriel_buc]

Installed Adobe Reader 7.0 . Here are my first impressions.

1. Installation goes nice and smooth. No problems at all.
The first thing I noticed during setup and the in the splash and about screens is that they got rid of the STUPID "leaping businessman" clipart. It was very annoying.

2. The splash screen isn't so fancy as the one in 6.0, and it's turned off by default.

3. First launch of Acrobat. The same EULA ...blah blah. First thing to notice really fast loading. I think at least 10 times faster than 6.0

4. The interface it's pretty much the same. Some buttons have been redisgned. In the lower-left corner have been added 2 buttons for fast acces to the fullscreen function and hide-toolbars.

5. The About screen doesn't have that scrooling Credits which I liked it. The Credits appear in a new window.

6. Opening a PDF (double click one) it's done very quick the same as loading the program without any file.

That's it for now.
When version 7.0 will reach final version will worth upgrading the old 6.0

[lieblingsbesuch]

I think the new design is older than that from 6.0 Oo, but i think, it's loading very much faster than 6.0, u r right, gabriel buc

Wow. And I was goint to ask if it was 150mb and takes 17 minutes to open before I download it That's what I was expecting from them seeing how their new versions are becoming...

[Sanjay]

**** this thing opens fast. Makes you wonder what they were doing wrong in version 6.0
By the way has anyone noticed that the version number displayed in 'About', is 7.9.0, wow that's like almost version 8.0 and this thing is still in beta. Strange, is it not?

The original file is 18.4 mb, but the msi & data1.cab file add up to 30.5mb
Is there no way to use the original exe file to do the silent install?
