   As previously, nope, mine doesn't do that.   
   But as it turns out, Javier's suggestion (see my second followup   
   to him) immediately solves all my acroread problems...   
   from the command line   
      GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/Adwaita/gtk-2.0/gtkrc   
      export GTK2_RC_FILES   
   and then run acroread. And I've got no edit/preferences problem, either.   
   So try that, and then let us know whether or not that edit/preferences   
   problem you're having is (or isn't) also fixed. Hopefully, it's all good.   
   Very nice to have acroread available again.
