Thanks Alexander. Yes, the choice is current/ports/print/acroread[8-9], Yes, maybe I should try but unfortunately I probably need 9, as per http://www.hmrc.gov.uk/ct/ct-online/file-return/online-help.htm Click near base of page on "Filing your Company Tax Return online: a beginner's guide (PDF 2.1MB)" which goes to online-return.pdf online-return.pdf (published August 2011) Page 2 Last Paragraph: "You'll need to have Adobe Reader software version 9.2 or later installed on your computer to use all the functionality offered within the HMRC software. If you have an older version of Adobe reader, HMRC recommends that you download the latest version from the Adobe website before you download the HMRC software. Although the download is free, it may take up to 30 minutes to complete." (& The combo of HMRC .pdf + Adobe last year was So flakey (using rec. release of Adobe, not an older release, on MS OS) I didnt want to tempt fate further by trying to step back to use 8, though maybe later if desperate ) I had noticed the warning 8.2-RELEASE/ports/print/acroread9/Makefile pre-everything:: @${ECHO_CMD} "Try print/acroread8 instead if you need Adobe Reader." @${ECHO_CMD} "Currently acroread9 port does not work with X Window " @${ECHO_CMD} "System because of issues in FreeBSD's Linux emulation." is not in (chronologicaly ordered) 9.0-RELEASE & 8.3-RELEASE, & current so I've been using current ports/print/acroread9 Cheers, Julian -- Julian Stacey, BSD Unix Linux C Sys Eng Consultants Munich http://berklix.com Reply below not above, cumulative like a play script, & indent with "> ".
