The "Adobe" family does not allow redistribution. For acroread there are eqivalent open source vesions available.
The open source versions have incomplete functionality, unfortunately. Filling forms, for instance, is missing. Some files display incorrectly.
Sincerely, I needed commercial Reader once in a few years, and that was filling forms feature. If there is many like me (question for next poll?) than Reader can be downloaded.

Right. Do you want to serve best those wanting pure oss, or those wanting convenience? Is serving both possible?
It is possible. Just setup selection window similar to desktop selection and ask user: x complete system including few free commercial programs with different license terms than opensource - pure oss system If you don't understand what is pure oss system than you probably don't need it.
