You may not need the full path, if your pdf-viewer is directly accessible.

Acrobat pdf
I have moved away from Adobe Acrobat for PDFs as there are many alternatives that are substantially cheaper and in fact in many cases better. However as my Adobe licence has just run out it seems I can no longer generate PDF documents- I get the pdf in acrobat but I can't access it as an adobe page comes up asking me to re-licence Acrobat but I want to continue using PDFexpert instead- How do I change the preferences with Lyx to stop it assuming I am using Adobe Acrobat for PDFs and instead use PDFExpert for pdf output?
