Ubuntu :: Can't Install Adobe Pdf Reader In Firefox
Nov 16, 2010Firefox v 3.6.12 running in Ubuntu 10.10
When a pdf file is accessed I get redirected to Adobe website to download AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin (for Linux).
Firefox v 3.6.12 running in Ubuntu 10.10
When a pdf file is accessed I get redirected to Adobe website to download AdbeRdr9.4-1_i486linux_enu.bin (for Linux).
My firefox will not open a pdf (Adobe reader/acroread) directly. An error comes up that I need to change my preferences. I have gone into preferences, but there is no area for pdf reader in the preferences panel. I have tried reinstalling both acroread, and adobe reader bin file from adobe website, to no avail.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have successfully installed Adobe Reader 9.1. It shows up in firefox as a plugin properly. It does not show up in edit->preferences as an Application (not sure if that matters). However when I click on a PDF to download, I get an error in the browser:
"Could not launch Adobe Reader 9.1.2. Please make sure it exists in PATH variable in the environment. If the problem persists, please reinstall the application."
I put the /opt/Adobe/Reader9/bin in my PATH in ~/.bashrc and even rebooted to make sure all was set. I still get the same message. Where do I set my PATH to make this work?
I thought I solved this in one of the earlier RC for my guide buy it seems to have regressed. It loads adobe reader, but then it only has a grey screen that turns white eventually.

Since a week or two, clicking a link to a pdf file will not load in Firefox. I tried removing Adobe Reader and reinstalling it. Then the pdf files loaded, but now again they will not load. It just stopped working! No error messages.
I'm looking for alternative to Adobe Acrobat Reader, a slim free PDF Reader with browser plugin, for example for Iceweasel.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to install Adobe Reader 9 on Ubuntu 10. I'd be happiest to apt-get install something, but I'm not picky. I downloaded a file from the web site, but neither I nor Ubuntu knew what to do with it. What is the easiest way to get this done?
View 4 Replies View RelatedOn a Debian system, I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader using the Linux binary (AdbeRdr9.4.2-1_i486linux_enu.bin) downloaded from Adobe's website. I realized there's a way to install it from a Debian package as opposed to Adobe's binary (and be able to keep up better with security updates), so I want to remove Adobe's version and install the Debian package. What's the right way to uninstall Reader when it was installed this way?

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have just updated my system from openSuse 11.1 to openSuse 11.2, all is working fine. Now I would like to install the Adobe Reader program downloading it from the official website. I can use Evince to see PDF files... Unfortunately Evince shows strange defects over the images contained in the PDF file (strange white vertical lines and other little things).
I want try to use the original Adobe reader to check if those defects will go away so I can print the document (on Windows the pdf file is displayed perfectly). I have gone to this address to download the latest version:
Adobe - Adobe Reader : For Unix : Adobe Reader 9.3.1 Linux and Solaris update - multiple languages
When I presse the "Download" button I go to another page. In this page I select the 9.3.1 version and then the "enu" directory (I suppose that "enu" stays for "english", I'm right? )
After that I block myself; as I see there are only i386 and i486 version available, but I have the i586 architecture. This means that the Adobe Reader is not available for my Linux system? Maybe I have got the wrong download address?
I have this weird Problem with Adobe Reader. When I continuously press the down/up arrow key, it's not continuously scrolling which is the expected behavior. This works perfectly fine with other PDF Readers but sometimes 3rd party PDF Readers do not render the pages well enough. Is anyone else having this problem?

I downloaded install kit(.tar.gz) from Adobe website, it seems only 32bit kit there. Anyway, it can install successfully, but when running, systems reports "...can not find /lib/ld-linux.so.2". But the OS is 64bit Fedora, the /lib64 contain *.so.2 library. How can I do to make Adobe reader run on my 64bit linux?

everything installed correctly in the "opt/adobe" directory. But after installation when I tried to open a pdf document using adobe reader it doesn't respond anything. Even when I tried to open it through the kernel I got the error message as follows...
