[Patentpractice] ADS editing question

[Jeffrey Semprebon]

Ahh, a nostalgic reminder of the days of yore when there was a delay before
EFS-Web would accept the most recent version of Acrobat, so one would have
to send a copy of the PDF file to be submitted to the person in the office
with an older version, who would open it and send it back, and then the
USPTO would accept it as a valid PDF.
