[Dspace-general] Adobe Acrobat Reader ver 6.0 and PDFs in DSpace

I just discovered something about opening PDFs in DSpace with Adobe 
Acrobat Reader ver 6.0 at my own institutional site and found the same 
thing at several other randomly selected DSpace sites. PDFs that are 
searchable (i.e., using the Adobe Reader search command) in ver 6.0 of 
Adobe, aren't searchable when they are opened/viewed in DSpace using the 
Adobe Reader search command.  However, the exact same PDFs are 
searchable using ver 5.0 of Adobe Reader in DSpace. It appears that 
DSpace is somehow disabling the search feature of AA Reader ver 6.0. Has 
anyone else observed this yet?.... Thanks, William
