BTW, how is it handling the update of the screen?
Kicker forces a screen update each time you click a button which is great. Otherwise it is possible to get the poor thing hopelessly confused - particularly if you have browser/xpdf running locally and various apps running remotely.

Clicking the page icon at the bottom usually sorts things out, but not always.
