Cinematography you can use the Adobe Reader or KPDF. Adobe Reader is available from the Adobe website, to install it, its a matter of doing as root,
Code:
#rpm -Uvh AdobeReader_enu-7.0.0-2.i386.rpm

A VERY good thing. I may finally be able to stay with Linux this time. This is my 5th time switching. |
