cannot run Adobe Reader

[David King, linux user]

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

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?
