Forum communautaire Firefox

Firefox 136.0.1, Linux 6.8.0-55, have set Okular as default pdf application, however Firefox will not open pdf file when downloaded nor will it open the file when selecting Open File from the Download Icon on the toolbar. Only was I can get to file is to select Show in Folder option and open from within Dolphin.

Firefox screws up showing .pdfs. The first view is fine but scrolling seems to overprint the first view without erasing it, if that makes sense, sorta like a double exposure. I can't get a screen cap either, which might just mean it's not a firefox issue at all, but I can view and screen cap .pdfs from any other application. I'm running Debian 12 up to date. When I need to view a .pdf I use Chromium, but I do prefer Firefox.

I often save to PDF or mark text then transfer it into a document. Firefox renders many letter combinations as ligatures: ff, fi, ffi, fl, and more. I don't want ligatures. The cures proposed have involved forbidding pages to use their own fonts. Is there another way?

I opened a new window and dragged a PDF into it. While the icons in the upper right do not include Edit, I just went to the field I needed to change (an alarm permit renewal, change of email). A box opened "somewhat" over where I clicked, and I was able to enter the new email, but I could not delete the old one. After saving and opening in Acrobat, both emails are written over each other, making both unreadable.

I cannot highlight my old email in the original form in order to select Delete. When I type my new one, a trash can appears, but that is for deleting what I just entered.

I often open PDF links in Firefox. I can choose to open the PDF in a Firefox tab. If I leave the tab open and restart my computer, or look for that tab sometime in the future, I often see a page that says File not found (see picture). Somehow the page is being cleared out of the cache. Not sure if Firefox is doing this, Windows or some other program. Any ideas to keep these pages so I can see them in the future?

When I try to open a pdf on a certain site I get the pdf, but there is an overlay of a pencil editing a ghost document. How can i get rid of this overlay? I've tried everything.

this is supposed to have a QR code, but it does not load. I have attached a still screenshot below.

I also cannot upload images using Firefox to Messenger. The large purple image is a result of an upload, but it should be a picture of a woman saved from Krita.

I tried a setting called "Refresh Firefox" and that fixed it but only for less than a day. whats going on?

Whenever I open up PDFs within the Firefox browser, they have a black background and the text and images do not appear. I can copy the text and images out of the pdf and into a word document and it works out fine. Also opening it up on other applications works out fine. Attached is what happens when I open up a known working pdf in Firefox. The browser version is the current version, 135.0.

When printing a PDF with custom page ranges, the footer text in the print preview (see image) does not match the actual page. As shown in the example image, if I want to print pages 2-16, the preview indicating page 4 is actually page 5.

So, if I want to print with a very custom range, such as 2-4, 6-10, 12-14, 16, it will be very confusing and will take longer to adjust.

And I also print custom ranges like this very often for daily tasks. I’m not sure if this is a bug or just a minor adjustment needed in Firefox’s coding. Thank you in advance for your help.

Hello all,

I know this feature is brand new and awesome! I have a question about the statement below from the FAQ.

What does the statement "When editing with Firefox, your documents generally stay on your local device" mean? I am just wondering about the "generally" portion.

I sometimes have to edit sensitive documents and want to make sure that this editor is a viable option. Will there be a prompt if the file has to be uploaded to a server?

Just some security concerns.

Thanks in advance for your help.

I was having an issue with pdfs on firefox; all my pdfs were showing up as black. To fix that, I refreshed firefox, which solved the problem just fine. Unfortunately, once I did all my extensions stopped working. The page looks like this.

For most of my extensions, I can just solve this by getting rid of them and adding them again, but if I do that for onetab I'd lose all my stored tabs. How can I get this back?
