How To Install Adobe Reader In Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx Easily

In this brief tutorial, I’m going to show you how to install Adobe Reader 9 in Ubuntu, including Lucid Lynx from Ubuntu Software Center. In every Ubuntu edition, there’s a default PDF Reader installed by default, but if your preferred PDF viewer is Adobe Reader, then this tutorial will show you how to install it.

 

Getting started:

 

To get started, go to Applications –> Ubuntu Software Center.

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds

 

Then type ‘Adobe Reader 9’ in the search box. Next select ‘Adobe Reader 9’ and click ‘More Info’.

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds_1

 

Next click ‘Use This Source’

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds_2

 

Then click ‘Install

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds_3

 

During the installation a window will pop up. When it does, click Forward.

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds_4

 

After installing, go to Applications –> Office –> Adobe Reader 9

 

adobe_reader_lucid_upds_5

 

 

Enjoy!
