    Default Acrobat 8.1.2 crashes when Document > Header& Footer > Add .. is invoked

    I'm running Acrobat 8.1.2 PPC on a PowerBook G4/1.67 Ghz running Leopard 10.5.4. I haven't used the page numbering function in quite a while, since before I upgraded to Leopard. Today I assembled a course packet of 150+ pages from 50 or so individual pdf documents. All was fine until I wanted to put a page number in the footer by invoking Document > Header & Footer > Add.... It crashes Acrobat after putting a spinning system cursor every time. I've tried "Examine" to remove things, but it doesn't help (and it removes bookmarks even when you tell it not to!). Running the PDF Optimizer on this document crashes Acrobat as well!

    Has anyone else seen these problems? Are these remaining incompatibilities with Leopard? Advanced > Document Processing > Number Pages doesn't seem to add page numbers!

    What does happen if you open the PDF in Acrobat, save-as and then try again?

    I don't think it makes a difference. An Adobe engineer has confirmed that this doc has revealed a bug in both Acrobat Pro 8 and 9.
