I don't have Acrobat installed on any of my hosts right now,
but IIRC it should be in: File->Document Properties->Summary

So?

LDD is produced by Oreilly which aside from many Linux books
published most of my Unix bookshelf and was doing it well
before Linus even graduated (Xlib programming manual - 1988).

It is pretty natural that some of his toolchain runs on various
Unix boxes. If you'll look at his web sites, you'll see similar
results (via netcraft, no 100% guarantee):
   www.oreilly.com - Linux, Apache
   examples.oreilly.com - Solaris 8, Apache
The man eats his dogfood, that's one reason he is a good tech publisher.

Cheers,
