Does anyone have suggestions for dealing with this xpdf problem on  
linux with Ubuntu?

Thanks,
Bill

  I don't see what you mean. Which command-line do you use ? What do you
actually expect ? I don't see the problem with having to close xpdf by
hand (try using q as well, much faster) - I don't even see how it could
be else, to be truthful.

  Cheers,
