Thank you. I'll follow your instructions. Browsing through the Adobe web site I noticed Acrobat Distiller is available for UNIX as well. I have it on Windows. It's very useful to convert files from other format into "pdf" files. Does a Linux SuSE version of Acrobat Distiller exist ? Does anyone have any experience with it on SuSE ? How much does the Linux version cost ? Maura Chad Whitten wrote:
i installed the new acrobat via the tgz file and all you have to do is run the INSTALL program, tell it where you want the acrobat excutables installed (i let it use /usr/local/Acrobat5 the default) then i just symlinked /usr/X11R6/bin/acroread to /usr/local/Acrobat5/bin/acroread and copied the nppdf.so file from /usr/local/Acrobat5/browsers/intellinux to /usr/local/mozilla/plugins
both work fine after doing so (acrobat and mozilla with pdf plugin)

Thank you. Actually I ignored Acrobat 5.0 would be available for Linux platforms as well ... I assumed if it was that people in charge of SuSE new versions would update SuSE ditribution kit adequately... which evidently is not done !
Anyway I'm in the process of downloading Acrobat 5.0 for Linux just now. When I extract the acrhive (unzip and untar the downloaded file) am I going to find an "rpm" file ? I'm just concerned about installation and integration of Acrobat 5.0 wih SuSE 8.0 environment ...???
Regards, Maura

How can I rotate by 180 degrees a "pdf" file whose pages are upside-down ? Unluckily whoever has ported Acrobat Reader from Windows to SuSE has left out a nice feature that Acrobat (Windows version does have) that is the possibility to rotate clockwise and counter-clockwise the displayed document !
Aren't you comparing apples ( Acrobat reader 5.0.x for windows ) and oranges ( Acrobat reader 4.0.x for linux ) ?
Try upgrading to Acrobat reader 5.0.x, avilable at www.acrobat.com
