Do you have Adobe Reader 9 installed? If you do, then go Applications >

Reader 9.  What is you version number?  The latest version is 9.4.1
09/21/2010.

If it is not installed, go Applications > Ubuntu Software Centre and
under Get Software, click on Canonical Partners.  It should be in the
list for you to Install.

I am assuming that you, like me, have the latest 10.10 version of
Ubuntu.
