View 1 RepliesI have openSUSE 11.2, 64 bits. I use Evince from the very beginning. Since a few weeks, when I want to open a .pdf file, Acrobat Reader appears and reads my file. It seems to have become the default reader now. However, I never wanted to change from Evince :this simple program is well enough for me. I tried various ways, but I can't define Evince as my default .pdf reader. How can I make Evince to become my default reader again please ?

I succeeded in installing Adobe Reader 9 (I need to review PDF documents in a number of PDF readers including Adobe as part of my job) but I can't open any PDFs using Reader. I ran "acroread" in the shell and it rendered this output:
Code: (acroread:17035): GLib-WARNING **: getpwuid_r(): failed due to unknown user id (1179128842) I've tried Googling all this, but nothing helpful has been forthcoming.

Also, as soon as I open the pdf I'm asked to accept the licence, that I had previously accepted.It's about the second time it happens in about a week. My acrobat version is 9.3.4.

I am trying to install the adobe reader in Fedora 14 using yum. When I try this I get a list of packages that also need to be installed. What do I do? I tried to remove avahi-libs-0.6.27-2.fc14.i686, but it wanted to also remove 200+ other things.Needless to say I declined the removal.

Which package shall I download? Where shall I retain the package to install so that it can be detected on browsing?
I've noticed in the last few weeks that whenever I open a PDF file in Adobe Acrobat Reader I get several files with names like 4cbe92d509fde in my /tmp directory. This happens for all PDFs, whether I download them or create them myself. Has anyone else seen this happen? It's not a big deal, since I can just rm those files. I'm just curious about how this happens, and if there's a way to stop it. I'm using Acrobat Reader 9.3.2 in F13 (32-bit).

On a Debian system, I installed Adobe Acrobat Reader using the Linux binary (AdbeRdr9.4.2 1_i486linux_enu.bin) downloaded from Adobe's website. What's the right way to uninstall Reader when it was installed this way?
View 1 Replies View RelatedThis isn't exactly a Linux question, because it also happens with the Windows version, but I've got a pdf file with a number of images in it. When I try to copy the image, it works except the pasted image is just a blank rectangle.I've tried this with The Gimp on Linux and Windows, Photoshop Elements on Windows, and some other programs. I get similar results from all of them. Sometimes the rectangle is transparent, sometimes black, but never the image I've selected. However the rectangle does appear to be the size of the selected image, so something is being picked up.

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?

Before that you could get it from Medibuntu.
Now I can't find it on 10.10.
Ubuntu 9.04 and a Konica 2430 DL on USB. I can get a Ubuntu test page from the printer management screen (printout says GPL. Postscript version 3010 revision 864) and I can print from Firefox. I cannot print PDFs from either Acrobat or Evince. The print jobs show up as completed in the print jobs list.

I am trying to stop acrobat automatically opening and embedding a pdf reader in firefox whenever I download a pdf. I can't for the life of me find a way to turn it off (short of editing a file called pluginreg.dat which clearly states "Do not edit").
I have tried the following:
about:config in firefox gives me no option to disable plugins of any kind (odd, as others report that that is where one does this kind of thing using plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types or some such, but nothing like that is there for me)
edit->preferences->applications is no help. it says "portable document format" should lead to an "always ask" question. clearly, this is being overridden
finally, disabling acrobat settings like "allow fast web view" does nothing.
I have been able to successfully install Acrobat 4 on CrossOver 8.0.0. I recently purchased Acrobat 9, but could not install it. Everything seems to go smoothly except that the serial number is rejected by the Acrobat installer.
1. Has anybody successfully installed a recent version of Acrobat on WINE or CrossOver?
2. What is it about WINE that would interfere with the serial number?
(I successfully installed on WinXP, so I do have a good S/N.)
When I run the Acrobat Pro installer, it does its little unpacking thing, takes about 5 minutes to get all the way through, and at 99.something% I get this error:
[URL]
I've tried several times, always the same result. And it happens even with no other programs running under wine.
I have 13.0 64 with alien's multilib packages.
Adobe Acrobat has stopped working. If I try it from the command line I get
Quote:

I have tried re-installing but there is no difference and the file is clearly there. Is it possible a recent upgrade of a slackware patch might have caused this?
I've been using pdfTk to encrypt PDFs for distribution to unsophisticated users (that is, users without PGP keys or the will to get one). RC4 encryption, although reasonably adequate for my use, is relatively insecure. I would be more comfortable with AES. Have any gnu tools emerged that implement AES within a PDF container?
