The stand-alone Adobe Reader will work fine under a 64-bit system, since it emulates a 32 bit environment as needed.
The 32 bit acroread works nicely on my amd64 (no emulation though, the 32 bit is native on those systems), but if you have an itanium I'm not so sure. Those things aren't natively 32 bit so you have to run a 32 bit emulator, but I don't think that's automatic
By "emulate" in this context, I meant that the CPU itself supplies 32-bit ISA, not that its instructions need to be emulated by software as, say, that old x86-under-PowerPC emulator used to (I can no longer recall the name of that product--it ran under MacOS). Randall Schulz
