I believe that gv (a postscript/pdf viewer) can bypass adobe passwords...I used it once to print a "protected" pdf file. Anyway, you should be able to install the tarball...I do not believe a deb is available. Non deb packages are generally installed in /usr/local, and I think that is the default, anyway. The only annoying thing in my case is that the "license" text continue to pop up every time I invoke it (once per session)...I suppose once can probably turn this off by looking at the appropriate configuration file. I haven't done it. Check out http://www.tuxfiles.org/linuxhelp/softinstall.html Good luck. V. __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? Yahoo! Mail Plus - Powerful.
