Having just gone through various pages of info in the process of moving
AcroTeX on the wiki, I understood that AcroTeX does *not* require
Acrobat. That is, the AcroTeX eDucation Bundle.

Almost all the components of AeB Pro, on the other hand, require
Acrobat Pro.

The commercial AcroTeX Presentation Bundle also requires Acrobat Pro
(maybe v 8 or better from memory).

I'm not clear what the commercial @EASE software requires.

Is this not correct? Does AcroTeX itself (i.e. the eDucation Bundle
which corresponds to acrotex on CTAN) require Acrobat?
