[Slackbuilds-users] SlackBuilds-users Digest, Vol 130, Issue 27

The current Firefox will atuomagically open a PDF in an editor/viewer (I 
read Linux Journal like this). It will also, if you have LibreOffice 
(maybe OpenOffice too, don't know), open from the Firefox viewer in 
LibreOffice so you can edit, view, save or print. You really don't need 
Acrobat Reader to do so; that is, you can save, print, view in the 
viewer or open in LibreOffice for editing, viewing, saving, printing. 
It's dirt easy and not too much fiddling around -- haven't found 
anything that doesn't work in just the viewer.
