I want PDF to open in the browser, no download. I can't find a setting to do this.

Other browsers open a PDF on the web in the browser, what pleases me.
Firefox wants to download, I don't like.
The parameters do not seem to allow me this choice for the pdf. Other types of work files.

Hello

Try renaming your mimetypes.rdf file in your profile folder - where the actions of the file are stored, so when it fails, Firefox will recreate this file. I hope that when this happens, it will be by default so that the files PDF opens in Firefox.

To access your account profile if Firefox is open:

  • Go to the troubleshooting page, either:

    • Enter Subject: support in your address bar and press on enter
    • Go to help (or

      >

      ) > Troubleshooting information

  • In the page that opens, click the view file"" button.
  • (Firefox) output

    >

    )

See article profiles - where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other data from the user for more information, such as where to search for the folder where Firefox is not open.

Rename the mimetypes.rdf in mimetypes.old file, and then restart Firefox. If it works, you can delete the mimetypes.old file. If it isn't and you wish to return your application settings, you can rename the file mimetypes.old to mimetypes.rdf (make sure that you quit Firefox before that).

  • Possibility for the PDFS linked to be opened in the browser?

    Hello

    I use 9 Captivate and I wonder if it's possible for a PDF linked to open separating it into PDF format, rather than in a new browser window.

    For example, the PDF file has automatic update fields that are not updated when opened in the browser, but updates correctly when opened in Adobe Acrobat.

    Thank you

    Hello

    To my knowledge, how any linked file opens or that is completely dependent on the end-user device and how it has been configured to process regardless of the file is.

    I would be surprised to discover that you can influence exactly what happens when the user clicks on the link.

    I don't believe in other words, you can force a specific behavior.

    See you soon... Rick

  • Action scripts when the PDF opens in the browser

    I may be in the wrong forum or can answer this question already

    I think that the answer will be no. but thought I would ask

    I use Adobe Pro and our institution as a whole has a license for Adobe Pro

    I wrote a script of Action that retrieves certain pages of a document package, some of them emails, records some of them and destroy them before that parts of the package that need signed are printed

    Here's my number

    We have Adobe Pro xi

    Windows 7

    THAT IS TO SAY 10

    The formula in question is generated from a browser application. All employees have the ability to go into tools - manage add-ons - and enable or disable Adobe Reader

    Mine is always disabled

    Several members of the staff have it turned on and open the document in the browser

    -so far all document javascripts I have written have worked anyway

    Action script though - I can't call when I go and activate Adobe Reader as the only elements that show to the staff's signature and comments form. The 'Tools' option is not there, and this is where my action script.

    I could force the staff to open in PDF format - but they won't be happy if I force this option

    is far from having the tools - and so my action script work if they open the PDF file in the browser?

    I guess I could try to do all the action script code in a JSButton if this is not possible, but action script allowed me to break the code into the section

  • Output XML code directly will open in the browser

    Hello

    I use OAS 10g R2. We are generates all the reports with the PDF output directly in the browser. For some of them, we implemented exit Excel, but it does not work very well. After that, we deployed out Excel through Rep2Excel but has too many problems.
    Finally, we opted to generate reports with the output XML, using DesFormat = XML and DesType = CACHE. We want this release to be opened directly in Microsoft Excel, but browsers (Firefox or IE) that open directly so that users must save the output in an XML file and then open it with Excel.

    We know some so that the output can be directed to Excel without this extra step?

    Thank you!

    Not the answer you want, but you could set up your quick customer with an ftp upload which would replace the existing pdf. I use Transmit and it would allow your customer to simply drag and drop on a folder.

  • Anyway to download a file directly from acrobat without him open in the browser.

    I created a form of simple interactive command to our distributors. I intend to provide the form by e-mail, specifically of mailchimp. However, in mailchimp during binding to a file it will open in the browser. It is a problem because the Send button does not work correctly in some browsers, IE, Firefox and Chrome. Is it possible to download a file to your computer right in Acrobat, or y at - it a simple way I could program the file to download on the computer rather than the browser to mailchimp. I'm not a programmer, so I didn't know if it was an option or not.

  • Acrobat, does not display PDF files correctly in the browser

    This seems to happen only on chrome when displayed in the browser of the graphics, especially the text appears incorrectly, or in this case at all. You can see that the financial 'Fi' is missing. It is a major problem because most of the people who visit the site hit the download and the PDF file automatically opens in the browser. Is there any solution for this? Not bad I exported in Indesign? Fonts should be returned in an object before you export it in PDF format (this is the galley)?

    BUT a quick fix is to download the PDF file, display in the browser, then refresh the page and display all fonts. Weird. It is a step that many will miss.

    Screen shot 2013-09-13 at 9.53.52 AM.png

    This is what it looks like when downloaded and played in acrobat. Notice the thicker fonts

    You probably view the PDF file in the viewer of PDF from Google Chrome and NOT Adobe's PDF Viewer.

    1. check your plug-ins by going to:

    chrome://plugins

    2. go outside viewer of PDF of Chrome.

    3. If you see (active), then you use the viewer of PDF of Chrome.

    Missing in many ways for the feature.  Fonts is one of them.

    4. you can disable

    5. then go to the the list for Adobe Reader

    Adobe PDF plugin for Firefox and Netscape

    6. then turn it back on.

  • AdobeConnect open in the browser in firefox

    Hello

    I am trying to open Adobe Connect in browser Firefox (on Mac, but generally on any OS).

    It works in Safari and Chrome.

    I was able to identify the issue when you run the following code.

    < h1 > Acrobat Connect Pro iframe test < / h1 >

    " < iframe src =" https://my.adobeconnect.com/yukochap?guestName=Antoine & [email protected] [email protected] "style =" width: 1000px; " height: 500px; » >

    < / iframe >

    I have attached the code in a small document so that you can try yourself - test_adobe_connect.html. You will see my results as screenshots.

    (1) Firefox: does not work in the browser, works in the module

    (2) chrome: Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro plugin detected - open in the browser and automatically connected

    (3) safari: Adobe Acrobat Connect Pro plugin detected - open in the browser and automatically connected

    I need the good url/attributes to open in the iframe to open adobe connect correctly.

    Looking at the documentation, I couldn't find any clues.

    Thank you

    Try adding & Launcher = false after login.

    For example: https://my.adobeconnect.com/yukochap?guestName=Antoine&launcher=false

    Who will say Connect do not use the Add-in. If the add-in is available then it opens in its own window you see in FireFox.
