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

Well you can do that, but that hardly counts as a pdf reader. It's  
actually easier, from inside GNOME, to open the PDF in evince and  
select all then paste into whichever editor you prefer.
However, none of this helps if the PDFs that need to be read are  
protected as a good many Ebook PDFs are. In that case, Acrobat is the  
only way to read them at all, as they're encrypted and not simply with  
a password in some cases.

   The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a  
thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot  
possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to  
get at or repair.
