I'll see if I can help. Anything in quotes is a command to be copied into the Terminal. The same things can also be gotten graphically through Add/Remove Software or Synaptic, but the command line way is faster and easier.

Ubuntu normally tells me when I need those things and goes to get them for me. If not I would search in Synaptic. (System-Administration-Synaptic Package Manager)

It comes with one by default- I believe it's called Evince or something like that. I just know that I've always been able to deal with PDFs nicely from the base install.

I've had rotten luck trying to burn discs in Ubuntu, even after downloading several different programs, so I think it's a driver issue for me. Ubuntu comes default with Brasero and one or two other random programs. You could "sudo apt-get install k3b" to get another popular disk burner.
You could combine all of those with "sudo apt-get install gimp amorak abiword seamonkey mplayer k3b" to tell Ubuntu to install all of the ones I gave commands for with just one command- probably would save some time for you over individual commands.
