So…I’m installing KDE for my gf. She needs to be able to use Acrobat Pro in order to edit PDFs which is something she commonly does. So…I managed to install it. In Lutris. It does open, and from the ‘open file’ menu, I can actually open PDFs to edit them.

However…when I click on a random PDF file on my desktop…it completely ignores it, and just open to the welcome screen. Is there a way I can pass the file URL to Lutris/Adobe?

For better details, let’s see, the KDE shortcut looks as follows:

Name: Adobe Acrobat Generic Name: Comments: Environment Variables: LUTRIS_SKIP_INIT=1 Program: flatpak command-line arguments: run net.lutris.Lutris lutris:rungameid/1

So…I tried to pass the %U at the end of the arguments, so it would look as:

run net.lutris.Lutris lutris:rungameid/1 %U

But this doesn’t look too successful, as it seems to completely ignore the last part. So…how can I pass the file URL to flatpak Lutris/Adobe?

    I don’t think Lutris is meant to pass on command line arguments. I’d rather use just Wine without anything else.

    Doesn’t Adobe provide a Linux build of Acrobat anymore? I’m pretty sure they used to do that.
