Adobe Reader Problem

Adobe Reader Problem

[Lutz Haseloff]

Hi Hans, Hi all,

since using the latest beta mkiv (WinXP) the lua function
pdfview.open("file.pdf") results in a crash of Adobe Reader
(with error report) and "Cannot contact server acroview" in the log.

The last line of the log is:
MTXrun | pdfview methods: default okular xpdf, current method:
default, MTX_PDFVIEW_METHOD=<unset>Cannot contact server acroview

On the command line pdfopen and pdfclose work as expected.

Have I to set MTX_PDFVIEW_METHOD?

Greetings Lutz
