Mike Jacobson used the term "native PDF" at the July NYC User Group. He said it was PDF created by an Adobe product product. Can anyone verify this definition ???

My Product Information:
Acrobat Standard 5, Macintosh

Internal to Adobe we call a PDF created from Acrobat or the Acrobat Lib's as native, PDF. Since PDF is an open spec, Deveoplers have created thier own PDF's 90% of the errors I get are NOT native PDF's. These other PDF creation tools use the companies interpretation of our PDF spec, so if they decide to do something different it is at the user risk to use it. So we define Natvie PDF as an Adobe (created with Adobe Technology) created PDF file
