Yes, and yes. Adobe recently released an update of Acrobat for Linux
(for a long time they hadn't gone beyond V5; recently they released V7
which I believe is the current version). I've used both on my Linux
(Fedora 1) system. Both work, though V7 is clearly better. That
includes some things I run into at work that other viewers don't
handle -- such as password-protected files.
