Because, unfortunately, as is the case with not-exactly-open standards dominated by a single company, some people try to get clever with PDF and do things that only work in acrobat reader. I went through this recently when buying a house, I got some "special sauce" PDFs from my realtor via some kind of website, they would not open in xpdf, kpdf, or evince. Just adobe reader.
