-# Purpose: A class that allows the use of the Acrobat PSF reader
+# Purpose: A class that allows the use of the Acrobat PDF reader
# ActiveX control
#
# Author: Robin Dunn
# So instead we will use Internet Explorer (via the win32com modules
# so we can use better dynamic dispatch) and embed the Acrobat control
# within that. Acrobat provides the IAcroAXDocShim COM class that is
-# accessible via the IE window's Docuemnt property after a PDF file
+# accessible via the IE window's Document property after a PDF file
# has been loaded.

+# Details of the Acrobat reader methods can be found in
