Hi,

I agree that choosing an OSS pdf viewer is the best. However is there a viewer that can handle animation? This is the only reason I sometimes use acroread.

An example of what I am talking about is in this file (created by LaTeX): there is a file in there called stadoc.pdf which has the animation on 
Page 5, Movie 1. 

https://wol-prod-cdn.literatumonline.com/pb-assets/assets/20491573/Stat_AutClass_v4_rev-1508937938000.zip 

When I try to read it in evince or okular, in the first case, nothing happens with the animation. In the case of okular, I get a blank gray square where the animation is. (All this with F28: I do not know if upgrading F29 will fix that in the sense that if there is an upgrade to evince or okular.)

Thanks,
Ranjan
