Acroread and Ghostwriter

All,

Where can I get the latest copies of Acroread and Ghostwriter for HPUX 11.11 on a PA-RISC server?

Currently Ghostwriter 7.05 is installed during the OS installation.

For anyone out there curious or searching for the same solution, these are required for the AdventX Oracle Connector to play with Oracle's new XML Publisher.

Many thanks in advance!

Acroread is an Adobe product (to display PDF files) so go to Adboe's website www.adobe.com for the latest version. Ghostwriter is quite a bit more difficult to locate and seems realated to Ghostscript. For Ghostscript 7.07: http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/PostScript/ghostscript-7.07b/

Bill,

I apreciate your response. I saw the latest Acrobat Reader was version 5.0.11, but the requirements page only reads HPUX 10.20 and 11.0. Do you know if 11.0 refers to all 11.x versions of UX?

And thanks for the Ghostwriter/Ghostscipt info. I'll install the latest version of that as well. :)

Like many PC-oriented software suppliers, they do not often keep up with the latest Unix revisions. The 11.00 version should work OK on 11.11
