11. Viewing PDF Files

Documents that need to be shared or printed across platforms can be saved as PDF (Portable Document Format) files in the OpenOffice.org suite. openSUSE ships with Evince, a document viewer that supports PDF, PostScript, DjVu, TIFF, and DVI file formats.

  1. Press Alt-F2, enter evince, then press Enter.

  2. To view a PDF file, click File+Open, locate the desired PDF file, then click Open.

  3. Use the navigation icons at the top of the window to navigate through the document. If your PDF document provides bookmarks, you can access them in the left panel of the viewer.
