    As I move away from Abode I'm down to replacing Acrobat Pro and Photoshop CS6.
    On the PDF side I've found a program call PDF Architect 4. I search looking for any warnings or problems by I have not seen anything.

    Has anyone here used this program or know of any known issues?

    Sumatra is good, really light and very fast. I stopped using foxxit when they started including malware in the installers (didn't we have a thread about that here? edit: here it is). If you want something more "power-user", try PDF-Xchange. It has more features and lets you fill in pdf forms, etc. I have both installed.

    I would say keep Acrobat Pro you paid for it and it is the standard all other pdf reader tried to best. I use Acrobat Pro 11.0.16 and couldn't be more grateful for it usage and integration into MS Office, FF, IE. That is what I find very useful so don't dismiss Acrobat pro just because.

    I totally understand what you are saying and I still have Acrobat Pro but I know the day is coming that I'll need to move to "other than Adobe".
    I'm just trying to stay ahead of the wave.

    Everyone is free to go with one they want but until your license is dead and gone with Acrobat I would remain with it. All other as I mentioned always compare themselves to Acrobat in the end. There is a reason my why paid software is good to keep when it works.

    I agree with sticking with the Acrobat Pro. There are other alternatives, but if you paid for it, hold on to it.
