I'm having the issue documented here: http://forums.adobe.com/thread/445594

When I try to open a FDF, I just get a pop up over and over again which asks me if I want to open the form.

One possible solution is downgrading to Safari 3, but that is not proven to work.

I thought maybe I could get the FDF to open in FireFox, but changing the default browser does not affect Reader, it still attempts to open the FDF in Safari (strange).

So, does anyone know of a way to open this form?

Thanks

Adobe Reader seems to use wrong lpr command when printing to CUPS

Hi, on my debian lenny box, printing via CUPS works fine, e.g. using OpenOffice. When printing from Adobe Reader, however, stuff doesn't work. It appears the problem happens during the first step of the process, when Adobe Reader talks to lpr. I guess this is the reason because I get an error message… >>> More
