Dreamweaver and Mac 10.4 Tiger Update - First Report
I saw this over on Macintouch tonight. I know some people had issues with Dreamweaver when upgrading their OSX machines during the upgrade to Panther (10.3) so its good to know that so far, so good with Tiger.

Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 requires reactivation after upgrading to Tiger. It posts a dialog , you tell it to go ahead, and it does so. No need to reenter serial number. This is pretty well handled.Also, Tiger appears to take screenshots in PNG format, rather than PDF (as in Panther) or TIFF (as in previous versions). I wonder why the change?
The “Tool Mode” buttons in Preview are available when viewing PDFs (and include annotation tools), but *not* when viewing bitmap graphics such as PNG, TIFF, JPEG, and the like. So, PDF’s you can drag around with the hand tool, or select regions, but bitmaps, no-go.
