Sorry, that was a typo -- I use /usr/bin/lpr, with CUPS controlling the
printing.  The message is "The specified file 'usr/bin/lpr' does not
exist" yet

If acroread lists the contents of the directory and searches for lpr, it will not work (bad acroread), if it just tries to run /usr/bin/lpr, then it should work.

pinot% ls -l /usr/bin | grep lpr
l---------   1 root  wheel        18 Apr 13  2007 lpr
-> /usr/local/bin/lpr
lrwxr-xr-x   1 root  wheel        19 Jun 16  2007 lprm
-> /usr/local/bin/lprm

The small shell script does work, but I'm curious why that is required.

See above.

You could try to just put /usr/local/bin/lpr in the acroread config instead.

Bye,
Alexander.
