Solution for the PDF viewing problems with Acrobat DC and request for testing
Dear LyXers, as you might have noticed, it is not possible to view and update the view of PDF files with LyX 2.1.3 if you use Acrobat Reader DC as viewer for PDF files. The solution it to replace the file pdfview.exe on your PC (in the same folder as the lyx.exe) with this one: http://ftp.lyx.de/LyX%202.1.3/pdfview.exe Viewing and also updating the view is then done via LyX's view button (the update button won't do anything visible). Please test and report back if it works for you. If it doesn't work, please write what version of Acrobat you are using and what Windows. Please also write the name of the Acrobat program window when a PDF is opened (e.g. Hello.pdf - Adobe Acrobat DC Pro). many thanks and regards Uwe
