Firefox Community Forum

All pdf files show all pages blank. It affects both those newly downloaded in Firefox and those I have stored on my PC and open with Firefox. I think this started from when the latest Firefox update was installed this week. I am up to date on Widows 11.

When I select text in firefox's built in pdf viewer, a menu with comment and highlight options automatically pops up. I haven't been able to figure out any way to turn this off. This is a problem because when I'm using the viewer at work firefox now puts this menu exactly over the next piece of information I need. (eg blocks the next row in a process log)

I am using Firefox 153.0.4 (64-bit). Windows 11.

I have Firefox set to always ask about how I want to open/save PDF files. Within the past couple weeks, I've encountered an issue with opening PDF files. When I click on a PDF and select "open with Firefox," the PDF opens in a new tab on Firefox, but it also opens in Acrobat. When I select this option, I just want the PDF to open in my browser, and I cannot find a way to stop it from simultaneously opening in Acrobat.

I just went to The IRS and filled out a pdf form to change my address and the print or font was in blue text I Want it it to always be in Black font text please let me know how to do it. I have font contrast and blacken as extensions. Do I need to do t in my windows 10 computer

I've searched the community for support to add bookmarks inside my PDF files using Firefox, but all I get are articles and community posts from two or three years ago.

I currently see no features or buttons to edit the outline of a PDF using Firefox (153.0.4). Are there any Firefox extensions or other Firefox methods that I can use to do this in the meanwhile, or do I have to resort to using third-party software and solutions?

Where can I suggest to add this feature if it doesn't exist?

Thank you for reading.

Download Issues My downloads have stopped displaying. Each page of a download is now just a black screen. Any advice as to how I can restore them?

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.

Editing a PDF is a great feature. Entering a text in Hebrew results in a PDF that, in some viewers (like your own) , the text disappears. When opening the file saved in Adobe Acrobat, it's fine.

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.

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.

I have my settings set to open PDF files in Adobe Acrobat, but the latest version of Firefox has started opening them in their own viewer, which is NOT near as useful, and I then have to download it to open in Acrobat like I used to do. Why? Is there any way to fix it back?

I am no longer able to open in Mac Preview or save when hitting Command + P, then 'print using system dialog'. It will only print instead. For instance, I save certain web pages as PDFs using the print dialog and now it will only print when trying to use either the save or preview options. Command + P, print using system dialog, then I choose either save as PDF or open in Mac Preview, but as soon as I do one of these it will only print. I am able to use save in the drop-down list of printers, but I need to be able to open in Mac Preview.

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?

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.
