This does not work for me on Linux with acroread 4.0:

Ctl+w does close the document, but
Ctl+leftarrow does not reopen it (after translation or not)

I assume by Ctl+ <- you mean control-leftarrow, but I also tried
control-lessthan, control-lessthan-dash, control-backspace,
control-tab and none of these reopened the document. Please clarify
if you meant something else or if I am doing something wrong.

Thanks,
Charlie
