After numerous requests from Solaris users, Adobe recently announced that the next version of their Acrobat Reader will have a Solaris x86 version. This is currently due to be released some time in 2009. In the meantime, the open source evince pdf reader (previously known as gpdf) has improved significantly and works well for the majority of existing pdf documents. Evince is included with the Gnome Desktop which is part of many OpenSolaris distributions (e.g. Java Desktop System on Solaris Nevada).
