PRJ: Gantt Bars Displayed Incorrectly in Adobe Acrobat (PDF) File (275549)

SYMPTOMS

When you view a project in an Adobe Portable Document Format (PDF) file that Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Distiller created, bars on the Gantt Chart may appear fully or partially blanked out if text is displayed next to the bars.

CAUSE

This behavior may occur when both of the following conditions are true:

Your computer's operating system is Microsoft Windows 95.
You are using Adobe Acrobat version 4.05, 4.05a, or 4.06.

WORKAROUND

To work around this behavior, uninstall your current version of Adobe Acrobat, and then reinstall Adobe Acrobat version 4.0.

NOTE: In most cases, Adobe Acrobat version 4.05, 4.05a, or 4.06 is installed after you install Adobe Acrobat version 4.0 first, and then you download and install an update from the Adobe Web site. If you have installed the update, you cannot uninstall it unless you completely remove and reinstall Adobe Acrobat.

If you installed Adobe Acrobat version 4.05 or later directly from installation media that you purchased, rather than by installing the update, you cannot work around the behavior by uninstalling and reinstalling the program from the same installation media.
