If I execute the software as root then I get a bit different output:
acroread:13512): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "adwaita",
(acroread:13512): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engine in module_path: "adwaita",
(acroread:13512): GLib-WARNING **: In call to g_spawn_sync(), exit status of a child process was requested but ECHILD was received by waitpid(). Most likely the process is ignoring SIGCHLD, or some other thread is invoking waitpid() with a nonpositive first argument; either behavior can break applications that use g_spawn_sync either directly or indirectly.
Well, acroread (and the browser-plugin) is 32bit-only software, you need the 32bit theme engine, gtk2-engine-oxygen-32bit.

adwaita is installed.
Again, you need the 32bit version.
Software seems to be very picky.
Yes, especially that proprietary adobe ****.
But those missing theme engines shouldn’t cause any problem.
Can you run acroread itself (just type that into a terminal wondow)?
IIUYC your tool still doesn’t work, right? I did suspect right from the start that it’s not caused by the missing acroread browser plugin.
Not sure if I can help you then. Maybe try to contact the authors of that software.
Contacted the support team and they were aware of the problem and sent me a development version of the software for testing. It worked fine. Issue solved. Thx for the help with other problems in this thread!
