Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.1.1
Adobe Acrobat Reader 8.1.1.1
Note:
there is a MUCH smaller version 5 (10 MB):
http://noforum.de/dotpups/acroread-5.0.pup
We currently discuss PDF-Viewers here:
http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?t=25981
Use this big one only, if others fail for you.
Version 8.1.1.1
This seems to load much faster than version 7.
You also could run the Adobe-installer yourself from:
http://www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/r ... sions.html
To make it easier, I created files for Puppy.
You can install a SFS-file (recommended) or a dotpup (e.g. if you forgot to take your pills).
--SFS-Files----------------------
I made 2 SFS files , english (EN) and german (DE).
Each is around 50 MB.
Place it in the "/" folder of the drive, where your pup_save.2fs was created.
Rename it: replace the "082" with the number of your Puppy.
This should work in Muppy 080 to 082.
So it also should work in Puppy 301.
It requires libgtmozembed.so.
I have set it up, so that it uses the one from /usr/lib/mozilla
If you use Firefox, change it in:
edit - preferences - internet
(deutsch: Bearbeiten - Grundeinstellungen - Internet)
I just tested it in a developer-version of Muppy, and not yet in one of the "final" versions.
Please tell me, if it does not work.
Download from here:
http://puppyfiles.ca/puppyisos/isos/Muppy-SFS/
--DOTPUPS----------------------
Requires 120 - 130 MB for the final installation, and 50 MB more while it installs.
So be shure to have around 200 MB free diskspace in your pup_save.2fs
Download from here:
http://puppyfiles.ca/dotpupsde/puppy3/dotpups/Office/
Please tell me if they work, then I will add them to the second mirror.

Hi MU,
I just tried the english.sfs in Toutou-3.01-1 with a frugal install. It works.
loaded up the puppy 3.01 pdf manual, also OK. I didn't try printing though.
The fonts in the preferences are rather small, couldn't see where to change it.
Great stuff by making it into a sfs, easy to load/unload
Keep up your great work
edit: I put the English .sfs in / of the USB stick where the main files are.
then used Bootmanager to load it and rebooted.

After reboot of tower had menu entry. After second reboot of laptop had menu entry.
Tower works both from menu and by picking a .pdf file. Laptop works by picking .pdf file, but not from menu. Error reported is: Can not find libgtkembedmoz.so. Tried to set location in Reader, still will not work from menu.

Hm, I have no idea at moment.
Please look at /etc/ld.so.conf
It should contain a line:
/usr/lib/mozilla
I don't remember, if that was set by Puppy, or if I added it by hand.
But I think it might be something different, as it works on your desktop-compter.

Hi everybody, I successfully "installed" the acrobat reader 8 english sfs, I only had to replace the libstdc++.so.6 that didn't work, now the program loads fine...I'm writing because I'm having another problem: after some 10-20 seconds from start, file properly loaded and doing anything, acrobat starts using 100% of cpu, precisely htop reports a high usage of /lib/ld-linux.so.2 inside acroread package...the problem is it doesn't go back to idle, the only thing to do is to kill acrobat....any idea?
eden6000,
do you have a swap-partition?
I see this using top:
So it uses a lot of memory.
I encountered on systems with not much Ram (e.g. 256 MB) using OpenOffice, that Puppy became extremely slow.
This was immeadeatly fixed, by activating a swap-partition (that I had deactivated before for tests).

Thanks MU...yes, I have a swap, it's a pupswap.sfs inside dev_save ext3 partition and it's in use.
Btw my problem is a high usage of cpu, not of memory...I attach a picture:

What problem do you mean?I still haven't fixed the problem with the html rendering library, can it be this?
Maybe your libstdc++ is different from mine.
What do you get by typing:
ls -al /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6*
I get:
Code: Select all
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 18 2008-04-04 15:07 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6 -> libstdc++.so.6.0.8
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 906580 2007-02-15 04:39 /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.8

You arrived before my answer
Yes, I installed the Libstdc++.so.6.0.5.pup from http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Libraries/, then I have overwritten those in /usr/local/Adobe/Reader8/Reader/intellinux/lib/ with those I had in my /usr/lib. I had to do it, otherwise Acroread didn't start, it complained that the libstdc++ library couldn't handle TLS data (if I remember well the message)
