I use XSane a lot and have been eliminating tons of paper from my office..Sometimes I have to scan a legal size page. I then save as a pdf file. That pdf file shows blank pages in acroread but works in Document Viewer. Can I modify the PDF file so that acroread will display it?

This is something weird, I installed Xsane with Xsane-gimp but its not starting. It shows its doing something but it simply quits. Here is the error that I get while starting it from console
Code:
xsane: error while loading shared libraries: libsane.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I was looking for a plugin to open pdf files in a new tab, acroread does but doesent remember the last view of the last file opened. So, is there a way to open pdf files through evince or okular within FF?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI can open other PDF files (including the instruction files for form 1040), but I cannot open the form 1040 PDF with acroread. I can open the same file with evince, but I really need to do this with acroread.

how to install acroread on ubuntu 10.04 64bit? There is at adobe only .bin file to download, and i have no acroread in synaptic.
View 2 Replies View RelatedJust ran update, and it automatically installed an acroread package (9.4.2 60.5Mb). Thing is I removed acroread in favour of foxit a while back.Why would I receive updates for programs I no longer have installed?
View 3 Replies View RelatedDespite using Linux for a while I'm only just getting a taste of managing my very own system so please be gentle!
After trying a `blind' sudo apt-get install acroread which was unsuccessful I tried installing using the synaptic package manager, and couldn't find it in there either.
According to the software sources info I have both Universe and Multiverse switched on. I'm fairly sure one of my attempted permutations of `acro', `reader' and `acrobat' etc should have hit upon something so I assume there must be something more fundamental wrong!
Am using a newly installed Lucid Lynx 10.04
Most every time in firefox that I open a pdf, the window comes up completely black. I seem to have been able to resolve the issue temporarily by reinstalling acroread, but then I get a black screen for the next pdf I open. So I wind up reinstalling acroread several times a day to open pdfs.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to be able to view multiple pdfs with tabs like Adobe Reader does but I'd prefer to use a native app like okular. Is there anything in Fedora other than acroread that can open multiple pdfs at a time in tabs?
In okular when you try to load more than one pdf, the newer one pushes out the first one.
First of all I must admit that I am quite new with linux, and maybe the problem I am experiencing is something trivial. Nevertheless I don't have any idea about how to handle it. When I try to print a file with Okular or with Acroread what happens is that the applications crashes and I have to terminate it, and the file is not printed.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI am having problems in printing 'complex' PDF files. Simple pages are no problem. Good examples is Royal Mail postage printing. Generated PDF displays correctly - and in Ubuntu 10.10 printed perfectly. Since I upgraded to 11.04 I get a blank page. No matter what I do. I have tried everything suggested when I googled the problem - but no solution works. I am printing across the network through my NAS box (no changes to that at all) to an HP Laserjet 1010. It all works correctly and as expected under Windows - so the setup is fine with printer and NAS. its a problem introduced by 11.04.

Is it possible to do the following without using the Adobe reader?Adobe Reader (acroread) has a nice search feature that allows to search for strings inside all .pdf files in certain directories (e.g. show me all lines containing the word "recursion" in all PDF files in or below directory "/papers", which gives you a neat clickable list and the sentence for each hit).I much prefer Okular for viewing PDFs, but I am at a loss on how to duplicate the above feature without acroread under linux. The KDE FindFile apparently does not search inside PDFs, or at least not in an intelligible way. I do have Nepomuk running, hogging resources, but I don't understand how to query it - if this is possible at all. So what can I do besides using acroread?

However, when I visited this site [IMG=http://img185.imageshack.us/img185/4708/snapshot1u.png][/IMG](consisting of a pdf file), I am unable to view the site.
Only, upon installing acroread, the site/file is then visible.
Note that BEFORE installing acroread, the site can be viewed with konqueror. [IMG=http://img718.imageshack.us/img718/1353/snapshot2hh.png][/IMG]
How can Firefox be configured to view the site without installing acroread?
I am using Suse 11.3 and Adobe Reader9, all updates are installed. However, trying to print an pdf results in:
/usr/bin/acroread: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libssl.so.0.9.8: undefined symbol: EVP_camellia_128_cbc
To whom it may concern.
If your acroread chokes with this error
Code:
"The print process returned an error. Please check whether the printer is connected to the machine."
check if "lpr" is available in your penguin.
Some distros may not have 'lpr' in cups package.

Just during the last three days, when running Update Manager, clicking Check, downloading all available updates, then Clicking Install Updates, the Downloading Files window pops up but it is blank. and it stays blank. The little rotating icon indicates something's going on but, NO. Nothing has happened, even after a couple of hours. Trying to close Downloading Files brings up a window to Force Quit. Then trying to close Update Manager has no effect. to shorten the story, finally a window pops up saying that the "AT SPI Registry" is not responding. I'm sure trying the same thing will not yield different results. I'm running 10.04.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been using Ubuntu 9.10 'in anger' for a couple of weeks now and overall I'm impressed. However, a couple of days ago my old Epson C46 (which had been working fine under Karmic) died, and I had a look for a replacement.
I decided on a Canon MP270 because Canon seemed to have gone to the trouble of providing Linux drivers on their website. I even phoned Canon and they confirmed it should work fine.
Today the AIO arrived and I downloaded the printer and scanner drivers from Canon. I could't get the install.sh files to run - tried ./ sudo and sh etc, no joy. Anyway, I used the package manager to install the .deb files and that seemed to go OK.
The printing side of things works fine but I can't get the scanner recognized by Xsane.......
How would I change the permissions for a specific program(xsane)? For some reason Xsane only works now if I run as root. It was working fine before the latest kernel update, now I get "cannot start scanner: invalid argument" unless I run the program as root. Also images that are scanned are nor accessible unless I am root
Epson Stylus NX215
Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit
The printing feature works fine still.
Iscan is installed from avasys.jp
Rolled back to old kernel and problem still exists
When ever I try to save a scanned image with Xsane i get the following message:
Child process error
failed to execute OCR command: gocr
No such file or directory.
I have tried several different directories and file names with the same resut.
I can't figure out how to specify a particular scan size in xsane. The only place I can find to change size is in preview, where there is a drop down list of choices including letter port. How do I specify an arbitrary size in inches?
Running Ubuntu 9.10
I want to reduce "Open Gimp, File>>Create>>XSane>>[my_scanner]" into a command-line ... line of command. XD So I can bind it to a key combo with Compiz-config. I just don't know how to find the commands to make Gimp and XSane do that.
