I will attach a file for the menu system which will add acroread to the
list.
If your menu system is configured per user, store it in ~/.menu/ and
run update-menus as a user. Otherwise, if it's configured globally,
store it in /etc/menu and run update-menus as root.
I use blackbox and it doesn't seem that a package install updates the
local user's menu files, (but it seemed that it did for KDE), so I
installed it in /etc/menu and don't worry about it.
I'll attach it for convenience if it gets through, and also copy it into
the text for just in case it gets stripped Adjust the path in the
command string to fit your situation. Blackbox doesn't display icons,
but if your setup does, you should have an acroread.png somewhere.
