    Yup. Also several others. The forms for the Boy Scouts are configured so that they can only be opened with Adobe Reader.

    I also had trouble printing from Okular but Adobe Reader prints fine. Adobe should put more work into it, though - the interface has problems.

    Adobe Reader Broken After Salamander Upgrade

    Hello,

    I'm having a problem with Adobe reader. Now, before you get started: no, I don't particularly like Adobe reader - among other things, it seems to have serious interface problems. Unfortunately, it's the only reader that will work with certain types of forms; one of which is my son's Eagle Scout worksheet/form. I gotta get this to work.

    Ever since the upgrade, the reader won't start. I started Acroread via the terminal and found that a library was missing. Accordingly, I installed the library. Now it's telling me that yet another library is missing. This is the error message:

    "error while loading shared libraries: libgtk-x11-2.0.so.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

    I've tried reinstalling libgtk with no luck. A lot of things seem to depend on it and I lost an application or two trying to mess with it which, fortunately, I was able to restore. Can anyone tell me how to get Adobe Reader to work without messing up everything else?

    FYI: I'm running 64 bit, if that helps.
