If you ave another PDF viewer installe such as evince, you can set that as your default PDF viewer

Navigate as follows: Menu -> Setup -> Default applications viewer - (select PDF pulldown menu)

BTW, I a writing this in LXSCPup64, but something similar should be in all puppies.

BionicPup64's default pdf program is qpdfview.

I don't have any executable named qpdf.

# qpdf
bash: qpdf: command not found
#

Is something trying to run qpdf?
Or is it trying to run qpdfview, and qpdfview is not running properly?

qpdf prevents me viewing pdf files. How to get rid of it?
