I quit using version 5 because I could not print many files. Acrobat thought
it printed them, but the print filter or print spooler would just quit
without a trace, or would start printing and just hang in the middle of a page.

I would get similar problems in different files, or different places, with
xpdf (which I basically do not like: the user interface sucks).

Version 7 seems better than version 5.
