Installing acroread without browser plugin

rated 0 times [ 2] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 368 / 1 Year ago, tue, may 2, 2023, 3:11:20

The acroread packages includes both the standalone viewer and the browser plugin. I need acroread for some annoying javascript-laced pdfs, but as an everyday viewer I prefer evince. Does anyone know how to install just the standalone viewer in 11.10 Oneiric?

If you are only concerned about disabling acroread plugins for your browser then (assuming you use firefox) Firefox --> Edit --> Preferences --> (search for pdf) and change value in front of it through the dropdown.
