Hello!
On the Adobe website, there are two packages for
Acrobat Reader 7 that can be retrieved, one is a
.tar.gz, and the other is a .rpm. RPM files
are normally for RedHat, and the other is probably a
general linux file.
>From your list of required files, I notice you list a
requirement of rpm-3.0.6 9. Does this mean I should
download the RPM version? Is there a reason for one
instead of the other?
When the package is downloaded, do I just use the
command
pkg_add -r acroread
(that is, after I expand the file if necessary)?
Or do I need to do a
make install clean
in the directory created by the expansion?
I have been seeing PDF files created in versions of
Acrobat later than 5, and they won't open in AcroRead5.
Thanks for your help.
Harold
