Hi,
I want to open 3-4 pdf document in linux. By default when I click on any pdf document it opens using Document Viewer. However for next document it opens a new window.

Is it possible to open all pdf files in one window in tabs? Or is there any such pdf reader?

Tagging @#-Link-Snipped-# to help in this case.

Install Adobe Reader :
-Open Terminal & type
```
 sudo apt-add-repository "deb https://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner"  
```
Press 'Enter', after couple of seconds of fetching data it will again ask if you really wanna install or not, Press 'Enter'.
- Now update the repository by typing
```
 sudo apt-get update 
```
- Now install by typing in terminal
```
 sudo apt-get install acroread 
```

@#-Link-Snipped-# : So Adobe has feature to open multiple files as a tab in reader?
```
sudo apt-add-repository "deb https://archive.canonical.com/ $(lsb_release -sc) partner" 
```
After this command it is asking for Password but it is not asking for any installation.
Anything wrong with command or I am doing something wrong.

@#-Link-Snipped-# This command is for adding repository for Adobe Reader. As you've typed 'sudo' it will surely gonna ask for password.When you'll type correct password & press enter, it will pop prompt on whether you wanna install PPA or not. Then when you'll press 'Enter' it will fetch GPG Keys for PPA & authenticate it.
After that update repo by 2nd command mentioned above.
Last command is for installing application.

I am not sure but I've heard that Adobe reader supports multiple tabs, I use Gnome-documents & Evince as I don't embrace closed source that much.

I installed it by other way.. And it's working now.
