Although there are a number of nifty new features available under version 6 of Adobe Acrobat, there is one glaring problem: Adobe's scanning plug-in no longer works.  Scanning directly to Acrobat now crashes the program.  Reviewing the Usenet and web-available discussion forums reveals that this has been a problem in the several months that version 6 has been out, but so far Adobe has done nothing to address this problem.  There has already been one 15-MB patch file release, but updating version 6 has not resolved the problem.

Apparently a few scanner manufacturers have been able to release updated drivers that restore the ability to scan under Acrobat, but several of the major manufacturers have not done so.
