           Summary: ports/print/acroread9 DEPRECATED, please adjust the

Hi there,

>From the ports collection, it is not possible to install acroread9 as suggested
in Handbook:

https://www.freebsd.org/doc/handbook/desktop-viewers.html

The port's state is DEPRECATED.

Port:    print/acroread9
Moved:    
Date:    2014-08-30
Reason:    Deprecated: many security issues are reported and Adobe no longer
actively supports Adobe Reader for Unix

---


An alternative would be to recommend the ePDFView tool:

"ePDFView is a lightweight PDF document viewer that only uses the GTK+ and
Poppler libraries. It is currently under development, but already opens most
PDF files (even encrypted), save copies of documents, and has support for
printing using CUPS."

http://freecode.com/projects/epdfview

Already in ports collection: ports/graphics/epdfview/
