pwillener Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Firefox 19 comes with a new PDF viewer add-on called PDF.js; it is absolutely terrible! The first PDF I tried to display (http://helpx.adobe.c...r_reference.pdf) looks like this To fix this and use your standard PDF viewer plugin: Tools | Options | tab Applications change (Content type: Portable Document Format) to Now your PDF document should display correctly in your PDF viewer plugin In case you do not see 'Portable Document Format' under the Applications tab, you may need to reset your Firefox profile (Help | Troubleshooting | Reset Firefox).

Moderators hazelnut Posted February 22, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 22, 2013 I'll just stick with my standalone pdf viewer and open any I need to using Sandboxie.

eL_PuSHeR Posted February 23, 2013 Share Posted February 23, 2013 I guess it will get fixed eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators mta Posted February 23, 2013 Moderators Share Posted February 23, 2013 not a problem with the update if you use Foxit for your PDF needs. Firefox keeps the Foxit Plugin as the prefered action. Backup now & backup often.It's your digital life - protect it with a backup.Three things are certain; Birth, Death and loss of data. You control the last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pwillener Posted February 24, 2013 Author Share Posted February 24, 2013 I guess it will get fixed eventually. I have seen posts in the Mozilla forums that promises an improved version for Firefox 20/21. That would be useful if you use a 64-bit version like Waterfox or Cyberfox.
