Re: Waiting until Acrobat closes file

[Joel Rees]

Will it work to:
a) Wait until Acrobat Reader is running
b) Sleep long enough ...

Instead of depending on timing, which will always get messed up when 
you can least afford it, get a list of the open files from the system.

man lsof

There should be better ways to get the file handle, but you should at 
least be able to look through the list of open files given by lsof for 
an instance of your file opened by the process whose id is the acrobat 
reader you asked to open it.
