Hi folks,

FC2
Mozilla-1.7.3

Acroread and Xpdf have been installed on the OS:

# rpm -qa | grep acroread
acroread-5.06-1.2mlx
# which acroread
/usr/bin/acroread
# /usr/bin/acroread
Warning: charset "UTF-8" not supported, using "ISO8859-1".
Aborted

# rpm -qa | grep xpdf
xpdf-3.00-3.4

But .pdf files on Internet can't be opened on browser. Clicking .pdf file on website only start an empty page. Control Center has already been setup to start .pdf files with xpdf-view. Kindly advise how to fix this problem.

TIA

I think it'll work. I was able to install it. But I never tried it!

You can tryCheck out http://plugindoc.mozdev.org/linux.html#Acrobat

The answer is here. I think you just need to search the file in another directory because you have installed it by RPM.

Hi Boby and kramk2

Tks for your advice.

Acroread is already running on this box
$ which acroread
/usr/bin/acroread

$ rpm -qa | grep acroread
acroread-5.06-1.2mlx

After addingto both
/root/.bash_profile
/home/user/.bash_profile
now I can start "acroread" from

KStart > Graphics > Adobe Acrobat Reader

and also directly on Mozilla to read pdf files on Internet.

However there is some strange happened here. I can't start "acroread" on terminal without running
$ LANG=C;export LANG (first)
$ acroread

Both root and user need this operation. I don't know its reason.

Does work better?

PS: look at my above post, have modified it?

Hi Boby,

Tks for your advice.

Re-edited
/root/.bash_profile
/home/usr/.bash_profile

asNow I can start "acroread" direct on terminal

$acroread
#acroread

without running "LANG=en_US;export LANG" first.
