Re: [orca-list] Trouble accessing Acrobat in Ubuntu 9.04 x64

[Doug Smith <dougsmith1 charter net>]

Try this: Open the file with your word processor, openoffice.org word
processor from the applications menu under the office settings and see
if OO can read it.  I don't have any pdf documents right now to try this
with, but it's only a suggestion since you can save documents in pdf
format with that program.



Hope this helps.
