In the past, I found that one of the main problems in viewing imported items was using newer versions of Adobe acrobat reader. For that reason, I started using Foxit reader, which I think works great. This can be downloaded for free. There are some user modifications that have to be selected. You must go to the file section and click on file associations. Then, go to the section that says make Foxit reader the default PDF viewer. Click on advanced and check all the boxes. Then click make default PDF viewer. I recommend that you give it a try. I was very happy with version 6.3.3, but it had problems with viewing imported items with any version of Adobe acrobat reader above version 9. I was upgraded to version 8.2.5, several weeks ago. Viewing imported items is great. I am having problems with slowness opening charts, closing charts and printing invoices. I have been in contact with Sandeep and he advises that this all relates to how the data is run through your CPU processor. I recommend that everyone visit his web page. I do not think that individual practices and small groups are going to find a better EMR then Amazing Charts, for the money. As noted above, it does have problems with handling large amounts of imported items. I gave up on my idea of scanning in all of the old patient records, and have kept them in different database. I have imported various reports, over time, as needed for each particular patient. Otherwise, I have tried to record a thorough old past medical history, decreasing the need to go back to the old charts.
