Adobe Reader Plugin For Firefox

  

If you're not a fan of relying on browser add-ons and plug-ins, you'll probably want to enable a feature that can help you ditch at least one of them. Firefox now has a built-in PDF reader, and while it doesn't offer all of the same features that Adobe's version does, it's more than sufficient for most uses.

To check the version: click the menu at the top left-hand corner and go to Help > About Firefox. This will check for updates and allow you to apply any it finds.

To disable the Adobe plug-in: open the same menu at the top of the Web browser and select Add-ons. In the new area that loads, click on Plugins and then the Disable button next to Adobe Acrobat.

Now to enable the PDF viewer:

Step 1: Open Firefox and type 'about:config' in the address bar. You may see a warning about editing this area, accept it to continue.

I want to install adobe acrobat reader plugin in ubuntu 12.10. I tried enabling medibuntu and searched for mozilla-acroread and acroread-plugins, but the search yielded no results. I have adobe acrobat reader installed using the debian package.
