Acrobat reader in Opensuse 11.2

There’s only the english version of Acrobat reader available in the non-oss repository. Anybody knows where I can find other languages?

I know it’s available from Adobe’s site but it’s not packaged as a rpm (it’s a bin file).

Click on the link on Adobe’s site to get other versions:

http://get.adobe.com/reader/otherversions/

Good luck.

Alternatively try Okular if you are using KDE; there is also a Gnome PDF reader.

evince, I believe, for Gnome. Should be there by default.

Good luck.

You can easily download the BIN file of your choice from Adobe’s site and the install it using these instructions:

Download the BIN file and save it to a convenient location. Then open a terminal and cd to the directory where you saved the file. Then type:


chmod a+x FILENAME.bin

where FILENAME is the name of the BIN file. We have to give this command to give executable permissions to the file. After that type:


./FILENAME

where FILENAME is the name of the file. This command will execute it and run the program.

Hope this helps.

Or to save on steps just run it directly:

sh ./FILENAME.bin

Good luck.

Does it provide a browser plugin?


*** To reply by e-mail, make w single in address ***

Thanks guys for the info but as I said in my post, I want to install Acrobat in french (Evince is buggy on some pdf files so I also need Acrobat). I’m well aware I can install it with the bin file from Adobe’s site, however it’s not installed in a standard (Suse) way, it doesn’t provide Firefox’s plugin and I will have to check manually for new releases.

So, since I can grab the english rpm version from the repo, I think it would be nice if other languages were available as well…

This is the one I am using both in FF and Chromium (not embedded).
