Unable to view PDFs without Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Browser Control

more options

Hi - I have Firefox 3.6.6 and haven't been able to find a way to get Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Browser Control installed in Firefox. It is needed to display PDFs on my computer since I have Adobe Acrobat STANDARD EDITION (not the Reader) ver. 7.0.

When I want to download a PDF, Firefox says it can't do this. With IE I can view PDFs fine. IE has the Adobe Acrobat 7.0 Browser Control add-on installed on my computer.

How do I get it for Firefox?

Thanks for your help!!

Operating system

Windows XP Home Edition

You're probably better off at the Adobe forums with that issue. AFAIK, Adobe didn't have a Firefox plugin for versions of Adobe prior to version 9. http://forums.adobe.com/index.jspa

Thanks for your reply. I'll check at Adobe forums as you suggested. If you're right that no Firefox plugin is available for my version of Adobe Acrobat, I'll have to give up using Firefox just after installing it! And I do like it!
