Is there anything that will read pdf files in an Amiga?

Doesn't seem to support later pdf formats properly.
Usually, text generally is viewed correctly, but in many cases, images don't appear at all .

@DrBong

Thanks for tip, but it seems I can't find out how to use Ghostscript to view pdf files, although I do have it installed.
So, it seems a little tricky to use ?!

@Macce
Worked for me no problems on A4000/060 using both AGA and RTG screenmodes. Did you follow the installation instructions on the developer's website:

The assigns are important......did you make all the correct ones?
