I've used this method a couple of times and had it work, but on several files, I get a "this document can't be opened on this computer. Was this document acquired on another machine?" message. If I hit Yes, nothing happens. If I hit No, it asks me if I want to learn about Adobe DRM protected files (I haven't said Yes to that one yet, but if you say No, nothing further happens).

In all cases when I got that message, the file was acquired on that machine (a VirtualBox machine).

In all of the files I've tried, the Print First line is there, and I've changed the zero to a one.

When I don't get that message, it works great. Has anyone seen this message? Am I out of luck for now?

Thanks!
