Adobe Acrobat 7 Professional (Mac) speed-up

Control-click on the application icon and select “Get Info.” At the bottom there is an option to select which plug-ins to load. I use the commenting feature in Acrobat to tag my PDFs with notes and I like the auto-updater, so I figured out which plug-ins I need for these two features to load. Everything else has been disabled. This works great if you use Acrobat to read science papers. Here’s my current list of required plug-ins:

• AcroForm.acroplugin
• Comments.acroplugin
• EFS.acroplugin
• EScript.acroplugin
• Reflow.acroplugin
• Search.acroplugin
• SOAP.acroplugin
• Updater.acroplugin
• WebLink.acroplugin
