I have had the same problem with the acroread distributed with SuSE-7.2 Try starting acroread, then in File -> Preferences -> General uncheck "Smooth text and images". I don't know why this happens -- it seems to depend on the X display you are using (it doesn't seem to like 24bbp -- OK in 8 or 16 -- on some graphics cards). Hope this helps, Ted. -------------------------------------------------------------------- E-Mail: (Ted Harding) <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fax-to-email: +44 (0)870 167 1972 Date: 23-Jul-01 Time: 13:56:24 ------------------------------ XFMail ------------------------------
