Unicode hassles. Acrobat reader can't handle it.
Workaround:
Define an alias in /etc/bashrc:
alias acroread='LANG=C acroread'
# vi `which acroread`
#!/bin/sh #
ver=5.0 install_dir=/usr/local/Acrobat5/Reader # RHL 8.0 LANG=C export LANG
# # Prepend a colon separated environment variable # $1 string to be prepended # $2 environment variable #
Yes that's probably what the shrike packages I grabbed do - basically save you the trouble of writing the wrapper script -
