Yes, that’s true. I’m concerned about .pdf files that I was able to read using
Preview, but have not been able to read these same files since upgrading.
there doesn’t seem to be any rhyme or reason. Of course, no picture files can
be read, but I’m sometimes having problems with files that I used to be able to
read. Again, this is not a consistent problem.
