firefox for android will not open pdf files
Firefox for Android will not open pdf files from many sites like banks and US Gov sites. A quick flash and that is all. You are becoming unusable. Your help files on the issue are for the desktop version not the mobile

Firefox for Android does not show PDFs as the desktop version does. You'll have to install a PDF viewer app on your mobile device, e.g. like Acrobat Reader. So download the PDF, and open it with your viewer app.
It opens them on some sites and not on otherx Adobe is installed.
Hi
Do you have an example of a site where a .pdf file does not open after you have downloaded it?
Thid is a link from VA.gov that it opens https://www.publichealth.va.gov/docs/exposures/registry-evaluation-brochure.pdf#
This is in a public area
Thid is a pdf medical record that it won't open but you can't open it anyway because you are not logged in
The same applies to bank info and invoices
All of these work fine with other browsers. Maybe you are getting to tight on security.
If you want security, stay off the Internet. If security stops function who needs security.
I have this problem with a range of commercial sites.
Hi
Is there a site where you cannot open the .pdf that I could test here?
