[pdftex] a little bit OT: acrobat reader

[Prof Brian Ripley]

Someone has I believe been messing about with the Accessibility settings,
which are designed for those with sight defects.  On the same preferences
screen, set the following drop-down list (Color Scheme:) to its default
value (Use colors specified in documents) when the first list is 
greyed-out.

Far from being an annoying feature of AR, this is a lifeline to those with 
vision problems.  At least AR offers you the choice.  (I don't have 
sight problems, but I work with people who do.)

I didn't think gv ran on Windows, and on Linux/Unix it is a wrapper for 
ghostscript anyway.
