I use playonlinux and installed Adobe Reader X. Works fine. It dies from time to time, but usually works for me. On Oct 11, 2017 11:40, "ac via talk" <talk@gtalug.org> wrote:

However the government of Canada (in its infinite wisdom) has mandated that to open and fill their forms, one use Adobe Reader. (As an example see http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/citizen/CIT0002E-2.pdf ). Alternatives? Not sure if you tried this yet but Adobe released a version of Acrobat Reader for Linux in 2013 you can still download off their FTP server: <ftp://ftp.adobe.com/pub/adobe/reader/unix/9.x/9.5.5/enu/>. Hi Myles, I thought about it. But 4 yr old software, from a company that has a history of security issues? :-). Not my first choice.
