It isn't working for me, how do you have your commands set up?

I tried setting up PDFs with
pdf /usr/bin/acroread %%

I got the following error,

OpenAttachmentByExtension: Internal error

[Exception... "Component returned failure code: 0x80520006
(NS_ERROR_FILE_TARGET_DOES_NOT_EXIST) [nsIProcess.init]" nsresult:
