I shouldn't be saying this, but is there any specific reason you're |
| 33 |
using acroread? It hasn't been updated for over 2 years now -- even if |
| 34 |
you manage to fix it now, it'll definitely break again in future when |
| 35 |
all dependencies move forward. |

The open source PDF readers like evince, okular, pdf.js |
| 38 |
(firefox/chromium) are decent enough. |
