Running 64-bit Ubuntu 12.04, I downloaded the file to my Downloads folder.
Double-clicking the file opens it there in the Ubuntu default pdf-reader,
but a right-click provides me with the option to open the file, in addition
to in the pdf reader, in LibreOffice Draw or in Gimp. Works like a charm in
both.....
