Is there a pdf viewer?  I attempted using firefox to open a pdf file to no avail. Also didn't see one in Appbrowser.

Thanks curaga. In the words of Leon Spinks "Sometimes I'm dumber than I am smarter."

Unfortunately both viewers were unable to open a pdf document that contains proprietary information of my company.  

The error box from EPDFviewer is one of my favorites ever.  It says:

Failed to load document 'pathtomydocument'

No error.

There is also foxit reader and acrobat reader available as a download and install script in the programming and scripting area.   Acrobat integrates will with the Firefoxes.

Thanks all,

Once again sometimes I'm dumber than I am smarter I had a permissions problem.  All three viewers open the pdf file properly.
