A: You may set the locales for Acrobat Reader to english. You must edit the start script "acroread" which is normally located in /usr/local/Acrobat4/bin :

 
---------- 
#!/bin/sh
# LC_ALL=C 
# <--- Add these export LC_ALL 
# <--- two lines ver=4.0 
install_dir=/usr/local/Acrobat4/Reader 
----------
