Re: [newbie] Acrobat weblinks and Linux
Don't forget to use the print dialogues from the PDF menu bar and not from the Browser menu bar. Regards Frank Big or small, a challenge requires the same commitment to resolve.

You might get a better answer if you started a new thread with the title printing a *.pdf or something of the sort. Although your question is very vague, are you having trouble printing pdf documents that you opened with Acrobat Reader (acroread)? Mine worked from the install, but there are configuration options about what printer to print to when you choose print from the Acrobat topbar. This needs to be pointing to your printer. Also Generic Unix LPD printing system in the dropdown box works for me, even though CUPS is what I use primarily. hth e Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

The error message, when I try to configure a browser within Acrobat is: Unsupported Web browser. Either choose a new connection type or obtain a supported browser in order to use Weblink Since Mozilla is of the Netscape family, I had hoped I would have a browser that I can use. The connection types are NCSA and netscape. e | | Mikkel Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft? Go to http://www.mandrakestore.com Join the Club : http://www.mandrakeclub.com
