• Why firefox built-in PDF Viewer makes windows 10 crashes

  I have a computer with Windows 10. For about two to three months from now, from time to time, my computer/windows crashes when I open or save a PDF in Firefox, which is extremely upsetting.
  I just found out a few days ago that Firefox no longer uses the adobe reader plugin, but uses rather its own PDF Viewer built-in. When I changed the setting to use the external adobe reader software to open / download the pdf files, it seems that my computer no longer crashes.
  So my questions are: why the bult - in the PDF Viewer gives windows crash 10? Will be corrected this problem and when? and finally, why Firefox forces to use its own built-in PDF Viewer when it cannot work properly with windows 10?
  This was the most overwhelming problem that I had with my computer for a long time!

• Unable to set the paper size at all when using Firefox built-in PDF Viewer

  I use the built-in Firefox pdf viewer and it's fab.

  But if I try to print, I go to the preview before print and go through the layout and it is useless, because it assumes that my book is almost SQUARE, and the only options I have are portrait and landscape. I use A4 paper, like most of the British and European.

  Of course, I can't work around the preview before printing or that it ends up in the wrong settings by default.

  Adjust (default), it is only based on the width (if I set the margins to zero - it's okay), but lacks the lower half of the page because Firefox think my paper is the PLACE for a reason any.

  The only thing that works is to set the zoom to print at 60% and have tiny everthing, which is ridiculous.

  Any ideas? Is it possible to manually set the width and height of the paper?

  Thanks if anyone can help with this - my alternative is to use the Toshiba reader of PDF files, and it prints terribly to be unreadable. The print quality on Firefox is fine, if I could get to fit on paper...

  Hmm, in your screenshots, why mention the title bar of the window Yahoo mail? Is it an attachment that is somehow embedded in the message? If so, can you find a way to see it in its own tab? Sometimes with the right button > setting > Open Frame in a new tab will do, but I did not open Yahoo Mail to experiment.

• There are many versions I [changed an option] so that PDF files does not open in Firefox. v 42.0, now I have no pdf viewer by default/built-in at all.

  I don't know how long it was, but I decided that I didn't want to use the pdf viewer by default in Firefox at the time, and because things have been very slow in the browser, I disabled the default viewer and set options to ensure that all PDF files that are open outside of the browser and directly in Adobe. I have no memory of what I've done to get there in time.

  Now for c. 42.0 (and 41.0.2, front) when I go to Options > Applications and select one of the "Adobe Acrobat Document" s, my only options are always "ask," "Save the file", or «Use other...» "and there is certainly no option of Firefox Viewer in 'another use. »

  With Adobe Reader latest terms and the fact that they can now push updates when they want, I just * never * use again.

  How to bring back the integrated pdf viewer? I realize there are other pdf viewers and I'm picking through those, but I would still have a browser too.

• 29 Firefox is no longer prints correctly of the construction in the PDF Viewer

  I print multiple labels of EBAY one day. Just updated to firefox 29 (not realizing really what has changed - now regretting) and the built in PDF viewer is no longer prints correctly. It shows well the label on the screen, but when you send to the printer (I tried two more different) it prints just the pages of two thugs. I tried a number of different print settings, and as I mentioned two different printers. Unable to get anything to print now except two blank pages. If I change the app settings in firefox to use an outside party 3rd PDF Viewer (e.g. Adobe reader 11, PDF Viewer, etc.) who work very well. However, the default built in PDF Viewer broke clear in this new version. A very disappointing start for me since it is an essential feature for my use. Yes, I have a work around, but the point (and a new bug) are still valid.

  Firefox 29.0.1 has been published, which contains a fix for this issue - an update is recommended for all those affected: Firefox update to the latest version

• the default PDF Viewer does not work

  I understand that Firefox has a default PDF Viewer, but it does not work on my Mac OS 10.6.8. When I click on a pdf document, nothing happens.

  When you click on a link to a PDF file, you get a blank page or a black background with an empty progress bar, or you get absolutely nothing?

• How can I get PDF listed in 'Options' > 'applications '? I want to stop the FF pdf reader and use the Tracker pdf viewer.

  I use FF 21.0 Desktop ruinning Windows 7-64.

  I want to stop FF pdf viewer and use my Tracker pdf viewer, as I did before the addition of FF look a pdf.
  I tried to go into options > applications, but it is not listed for pdf display line other than a single line for Tracker.
  I think I need a line that mentions PDFs in the left column, then a list in the right column, allowing me to use the Tracker (if all goes well as a plugin).

  I am lost at this point and would like to have the older FF with no look at pdf, built in.

  Help please.

  Some are saved in the cache disk (Flash for example) and others in the temp folder (those passed to other external programs and plugins).

• Set preferences to circumvent the new PDF Viewer

  My Firefox preferences for all types of PDF files are set to "always ask" which is what I want. What happens instead, is that they open automatically (very slowly) in the new Firefox PDF viewer. I want to have what I used to have: the ability to decide if you want to open or save, if I choose to open, taking place in Acrobat or Reader. I realize that I can (at least theoretically) set preferences will automatically open in Acrobat, but this isn't what I want. Is it possible to set preferences if I still get the functionality I had before the upgrade to Firefox 19? (I use Firefox on Mac 19.0.2). Thank you.

  Please also make sure that the default action for the entry named portable document (pdf) format in the preferences > applications tab is set to always ask. Then it should work as expected...

• I want to disable firefox 19 pdf viewer and use foxit in the browser without downloading.

  I tried two methods that I have heard so far to disable the new firefox pdf 19 viewr:
  -in total: config pdfjs.disable set to true
  -options > Applications > set display pdf application

  The problem: when I'm on the Foxit pdf viewing application, firefox automatically downloads the pdf file to open it in the separate application. Until firefox 19, application of Foxit reader will open in the browser. How can Foxit not having an add-on firefox, I disable the pdf viewer 19 firefox and use Foxit Reader to open PDF files as a new tab in the browser?

  To display the content in a Firefox tab, it generally takes a plugin. If that's not come with the main installer, it seems that you can use one of them:

  • Help > install the updates inside Foxit Reader
  • Download from http://www.foxitsoftware.com/Secure_PDF_Reader/addons.php

• Issue of FF 19 and PDF Viewer

  Thus, the latest version of Firefox 19 comes with a built in PDF viewer.

  The problem I found is that this viewer at the moment does NOT fill the fields of ina PDF, or let the user type in these fields to fill out, or show buttons print and electronic instructions place us at the top of most of our PDF "forms".

  Ex: http://www.tmcc.edu/financialaid/downloads/forms/1213/FINAConsortiumAgree1213.pdf

  This form should display buttons at the top and let a user fill. He does it with the Player plugin. In FF 19 built in PDF viewer, I can't do anything.

  We are doing all our PDF forms to fill out, so if there is a problem, if all goes well a fix or update can be found.

  It is being developed.

  See:

  • bug 739043 - can't fill out forms PDF with PDF Viewer

• Plugin 11.0 installed Acrobat 10.1.3 today Firefox don't work (ok in Safari) installed extension PDF viewer 0.2.537 can now display PDF in firefox

  It is for information purposes. I installed Acrobat plug today 10.1.3 and I get a blank tab while trying to open a PDF in Firefox 11.0. This plug in works in Safari. I've disabled the plug into Firefox and installed the extension form PDF viewer 0.2.537 Mozilla and open documents. I just wanted to tell you someone1.3

  If you want to use Adobe Acrobat, you can simply change the preference that has messed up:

  Go to Firefox > Preferences > Applications and search for "PDF file".

  Beside that, select use Adobe Acrobat (or use the preview) rather than Adobe Acrobat NPAPI 10.1.3

  Adobe NPAPI plug-in does not work on Firefox 64-bit... There's probably a bug where the Adobe Reader update puts this preference.
