With regard to reading PDFs on 64 bit *nix, I use Google Chrome. It handle PDFs without a plugin. One of the things I like about Acrobat Reader is the Advanced search option which shows found text strings in context. Chrome doesn't do that, but it does show where they are found in the slider controlling the page.

Ii suggest you download and use Firefox 19, which includes its own internal pdf reader (pdf.js), written in Javascript, no plugins to load!, just File-Open select pdf file and off you go. Same with pdf links on web pages, just clicks and the browser loads the pdf in its internal reader.
The Mozilla pdf.js extension works with Firefox ESR 17 (and 10) - you can download it from:

You will have to disable any other PDF plug-in/extension you may have
