Yes, that's a long time known issue :-( > It looks like there's some issue with the Firefox-acrobat reader plugin. > I noticed this on other computers running Linux and Firefox, even on > different distros and acroread versions. > > I am running Firefox 10.0.1., but have got the same problem on Firefox > 10.0. I am running acroread 9.0 but tried with other versions as well. I guess you should now be now running 10.0.2 :-) Well, for your problem, it is known that Acrobat plugin does not work very well in linux (and if you ask me, I'd tell neither it does on windows...) so what I usually do is: a/ Using Evince (or another PDF viewer of your liking), that works like a charm :-) b/ Should I need to use Acrobat Reader, do not use the plugin, just tell Firefox to open the PDF file separately, not embedded within the browser.
