Hi, I'm looking for a usable PDF viewer with CentOS 4.3. On my previous install (Slack running XFCE with a handful of GNOME libs), I used Evince, which is just great. Looks like this is an Achilles' heel in CentOS, as I tested three available PDF viewers (ggv, gsview, acroread) with various PDF documents downloaded from the internet (which all display perfectly with Evince): either the

In Centos 5.3, a bad problem has surfaced in user land. We want to use either Evince or Adobe acroread as the pdf view, but the update of kdegraphics has somehow screwed up these systems so that the odious, horrible, awful pdf viewer kghostview is used. It is what you get when you doubleclick on pdf files, it is what programs get when they try to use xdg-open framework. This happens even though

Adobe doesn't seem to have acroread for x86_64 linux, or at least I don't see it anywhere. Anybody know otherwise? Evince and other tools work pretty well, but I have always liked having the "real thing" around for those occasions when they don't. -- ---- Fred Smith -- fredex at fcshome.stoneham.ma.us ----------------------------- I can do all

Hi, When qqnorm on a vector of length 10M+ I get a huge pdf file which cannot be loaded by acroread or evince. Any suggestions? (apart from sampling the data).

This is just an FYI, folks. We've got this large poster printer. We had some, er, environmental issues, let us say, and first I had to recreate the .ppd (HP "doesn't support printing from Linux, and the one a former coworker extracted from the Mac package... was for a 23", not this 44"). Then... I was trying to print from a 6.9 box. I hadn't rebuilt the box as C 7,

Hello, I'm getting a crash with acroread on my CentOS7 (AdobeReader_enu-9.5.5-1.i486). I install the official rpms from ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/, tried 9.5.5, and former v9, v8, v7. /usr/bin/acroread loads well, but when you click a menu, bang. Same if you start acroread w/ a .pdf filename in parameter, the window opens up then crashes. I modified the acroread script to

Support for AdobeReader on Linux ended more than 4 years ago. It would be better to use evince, atril or okular. -- Ian

Hi I am having problems with the rendering of scientific symbols (mu and degree) in my plots. Whenever I use these symbols they are rendered changed (mu is changed to the proportionality symbol and degree is changed to something resembling a gamma) in the X-device. If I make a pdf of the plot and open the file in Evince or Okular symbols are also rendered wrong, however if I open the file

Hi. On the release version of Debian Wheezy, I am missing symbols for left and right brackets in plotmath. Anybody see similar trouble while reviewing demo(plotmath)? This is a completely clean, fresh install. I've not installed any peculiar libraries or packages, except R, the installation of which still puzzles me. I configured a CRAN mirror for packages using squeeze-cran3 folder, and

Colleagues, Several days ago, I queried about using the "system" command to open a PDF file. A number of people responded, each providing useful ideas. I integrated these ideas into a function that others can tailor to their needs: OPENPDF <- function(PDFFILENAME) { OPENPDFCOMMAND <- "open" # applies to OS X if (!UNIX)
