Adobe Reader does. Dont ask me how and why, but it does. Any other explanation of the symptom is even less likely. As a matter of fact, when I configure it to use /usr/bin/lpr for printing, it reports "/usr/bin/lpr not found", and when I copy /usr/bin/lpr to /compat/linux/usr/bin/lpr, it works. > I'm a little bit puzzled, but not puzzled enough to > investigate further.
