Hi All,

I'm new to Ubuntu Studio and to this list, but a long-time Ubuntu user. Recently I switched from "vanilla" 10.04 to xubuntu (didn't like unity much) and now I hope to do more music stuff on my new laptop running studio 12.10.

Adobe Reader; I didn't install it yet (don't like it much either :-D) but was going to because I want to have booklet printing available for pdfs. So Hartmut, please show me where I can find it in CUPS print dialog, because I can't by myself ;-(

All the best,
Alf

This is a standard-function of the Linux Printing System. You can print
any multi-page document from any application that way.



albeit smaller than the original document. Currently I now have to go into 
Windows, via Virtualbox  to do this. I realise Ubuntu developers cannot fix 
Adobe Reader, but it seems to rely on libxml2, which is part of Linux, and the 
error message suggests that's where the problem lies, as it used to work 
previously before one of the updates I did in Ubuntu Studio.

I use Adobe Reader for its booklet printing ability. I have not found a
FOSS pdf reader that can do that.

I would file wishlist bugs with the foss projects in question. We can't
include adobe reader. We also can't "fix" it if its broken. I would contact
adobe for support of the adobe products. I would be glad to help track down
booklet printing if you'd elaborate as to what that is. Also, in the
interest of casting a wider support query, you might seek help in the main
ubuntu avenues as this issue is not ubuntustudio specific. Cheers.

I installed Adobe Reader 9.5.1, but it will not run.

The output I get from the CLI is:

$ acroread
/opt/Adobe/Reader9/Reader/intellinux/bin/acroread: error while loading
shared libraries: libxml2.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No
such file or directory


I checked in Synaptic and libxml2 is installed.

I am running Ubuntu Studio 12.04

So why is my Adobe Reader not working? I tried uninstalling it,
downloading it again from the Adobe site, and reinstalling, but it did
not help.

Perhaps an multi-architecture issue? Do you run an Ubuntu Studio amd64
install? If so, is libxml2:i386 installed?

Is Adobe reader needed for something? I'm not dogmatic, I use
proprietary software myself, but only if needed. Why do you want Adobe
reader?
