Running some windows version under Wine?
Can't Wine run a fair number of programs these days?
I tried it, it currently does not install.
Can't say if it runs after installing.
The wine people say only version 8 installs and run completely. Version 9 partially (and for those we'd better use the Linux version, anyway). Versions X and XII, total failure. The other alternatives are virtual machines. XP needs to be at SP3 for X to work, but XP is EOL on 2014, the wikipedia says. Thus it would have to be W7, which is more expensive. Gratis alternatives, well, Android. I just installed Android 4 under vimware player, emulating a tablet. I installed Acrobat 10.6, but it is a PITA. The display is small, there are no guest tools (AFAIK), PgUp/PgDn do not work. Gestures with a mouse are complicated things... In all, acrobat in android, unless on real hardware, is barely usable. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
