Correct. I wasn't clear, so let me clarify: I regard every PDF I read as a static document. That's how I see them and that's how I read them, with readers that treat them as static. I have no use for a PDF document that wants to acts as software and I wouldn't use a bug-nest of a piece of software to run it.

In large corporate environments, PDF's are roughly the equivalent of small web-apps that handle a lot of the data entry and sharing across the organization. I'm not a proponent of this approach, but it is what it is and it is the reason that Reader is such a bloated security-ridden nightmare.
