On that note, I have finally put your version into the set of installers (I hope that's okay). Can you confirm that I have used the latest and greatest version of it?

I find that the slow speed resulting from scribbles is a real problem for loading PDFs with scribbles. I have been using PDFs as notepads (mainly for navigation using hyperlinks) and have found that the scribble file gets quite large quite quickly and then causes the PDF to load very slowly indeed.
