Privacy Alert
Acrobat Reader 7 contains the ability for certain PDF files to inform a central database that they have been read. This by no means affects all PDF files, and will not be a problem at all for users who do not mind this ability. This "phoning home" can be prevented by disabling JavaScript in Edit -> Preferences -> JavaScript. References:
Installation (Hardy and later)
Adobe Reader 9 is available from the Canonical Partner repository. It can be easily installed by adding the Canonical Partner repository and installing the acroread package. It includes the standalone reader as well as the browser plugin.
Installation (Feisty and Gutsy)
acroread is no longer available in the Ubuntu 7.04 (Feisty) and 7.10 (Gutsy) repos due to licensing nonsense (see https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/acroread/+bug/43780). It can be easily installed by adding the Medibuntu repository and installing the acroread package for the standalone reader and the mozilla-acroread package for the browser plugin.
References:
Installation (Pre-Feisty)
You must enable the multiverse repository (see Repositories).
To install the stand-alone reader, launch Add/Remove Applications from Applications > Add/Remove. Search for "adobe" or "reader" and select Adobe Reader. Click Apply to start the installation.
Alternatively, install acroread via Synaptic, apt-get or aptitude.
To install the plugin for your webbrowser, install mozilla-acroread via Synaptic, apt-get or aptitude.
Acroread Hangs
There are incidents of acroread hanging (confirmed with version 7.0.9-1 in Feisty). If you launch it from the terminal, it will spit out "expr: syntax error" endlessly. The problem can be fixed by editing the file /usr/bin/acroread
sudo editor /usr/bin/acroread
In the line
echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
(use ctrl-W to search for it) an extra '*' must be added in the parenthetical expression after ".so.0.":
echo $mfile| sed 's/libgtk-x11-\([0-9]*\).0.so.0.\([0-9]*\)00.\([0-9]*\)\|\(.*\)/\1\2\3/g'
