I don't think I had any problems on Linux with the PDF files either with 
the default reader or Acrobat's downloaded reader.  In general, you need 
Acrobat 5 to read the files.

The other problem could be the download from the web and the browser you 
are using.  (You could try a dos to unix convert on the downloaded file -- 
but I didn't think that was necessary).

I intend that the next Linux install will include the files as they are in 
the Windows install.  But without search capability -- that doesn't seem to 
be active on Linux Acrobat Reader.

I also have this note:
notes from the support forum, must use command: env LANG=C acroread
to execute or will get UTF error
