Alternative to Adobe Reader, anyone?

Show all headers | View raw

Does anyone have any suggestions for a program which will print PDF
files **scaling them to fit the page**. This last part is essential! A
program which just did expansion to fit would be a good second best. 

What *doesn't* work :-

Acrobat Reader:  It does the 'fit to page' but the version I have
(9.5.5) will not print a *single* copy of a file. If you ask it to
print one copy, you get a popup with an lpr error message that you
asked for zero copies. Ask for two copies, you get two copies...

Okular:  Prints single copies OK but doesn't have the 'fit to page'
feature. 

I'm running  64-bit testing and XFCE, should anyone feel that's
relevant.

Thanks, 

Brian.
