Hello Oeystein
At this stage I have got Acrobat working by using the bashrc script
provided by Hardy.
However, thank you very much for the other info you gave. I was not even
aware of the psyche-list. I couldn't find it using the Redhat search,
but did using Google. I have now subscribed to it. I
you can get an RPM here:

Hi Hardy
Thanks for the info below, I implemented it and despite Acrobat still
grizzling during its start up above fonts not being supported, it now
continues and launches!
Once again, thanks Hardy

Hi Alan
I live in Australia so I guess am afflicted with the same problem you
described.
I have now got my Acrobat working by using the alias in bashrc as
described in a message from Hardy Merrill.
Thanks for your comments
Regards

Hi
You just type "LANG=C acroread " at the shell prompt if using
bash.ksh or sh. Read release notes for this.

Lucky for you, someone I work with just ran into that problem
the other day. The problem seems to be that Acrobat does not
like the RH8.0 default of UTF-8 - it expects ISO8859-1. The
way we got around that was to create this alias in .bashrc:
alias acroread='LANG=en_US.iso885915 /usr/bin/acro

What locale are you running with? I live in England with my system set
accordingly, and one of the latest Mozilla builds reading what appeared
to be locale information...
I suspect commonality between the two
I have downloaded from the Adobe site, linux-506.tar.gz.
It seemed to successfully install into my nominated directory: -
/usr/local/Acrobat5; well, I didn't see any error messages generated!
On running it by typing "acroread", I get after a couple of seconds,
Warning : charset "UTF-8" not suppo
