    Question How do i change the default icons

    Hi Guyz,

    i wanted to change the icon of my pdf's from the default ubuntu one's to the acrobat reader ones because the default one's were occupying too much space on my dektop. Unfortunately the process turns out to be a long and cumbersome one, right now the only way i know is to get into properties and change the icons for each new file i make.

    is there a way for me to change the settings such that each new file i make gets the acrobat icon and not the default one.


    Thanks


    Regards

    Dhruv

    go into the icon theme diretory and replace all the ubuntu-acrobat ones with the acrobat one that you want.
