Diễn đàn hỗ trợ Firefox

Hi all, I remember in older versions of Firefox (within the past 6 months) that pdfs embedded in a page would be a hyperlink that you had to click which would open in another tab. Now pdfs automatically open which is very annoying as it makes it difficult to read, while I found a way to open it in another tab I was wondering if there is a setting I can disable so I can just click on a hyperlink.

Thanks in advance

Whenever I use FF to get a PDF file, It is corrupted. It seems to download ok. It will display, but copying from it yields garbage. Using apples Preview for speaking yileds jiberish. I do not have this problem with Safari

I had this problem for months even before my latest OS was install. Mac mini, M2, Sequoia 15.7.1, FF 145.0 (aarch64) kleps@uic.edu

This one is puzzling to me: On a website with login, whenever I click on an link to a pdf, a new tab opens (my normal setting) and immediately crashes (not my normal setting ;)). However, everything is fine elsewhere on the web, even on the same site in the sections without login. Here are some observations that may or may not be connected to this:

• If I right-click and open in new tab/window/download, everything is fine
• When I return to the tab where I clicked the link, the page reloads - independent of whether I did anything in the crashed tab
• the site-admins were not able to reproduce the problem, also it seems fine for other users
• the problem persists in troubleshooting mode, also manually disabeling extension did nothing, emptying cache etc. also nothing.

It is not like this is making me switch browsers (although no crashes in edge), but it bothers me to have no idea why this is happening. :) Maybe someone here feels the same? Thank you for reading either way!

I don't know why, but every time i open a pdf with the firefox pdf reader i get this kinda grainy view of the pdf. If i do the same with google is all good. I really don't know what to do, can you help me?

Hello... currently when I try to open a PDF from the internet, I cannot open it in Firefox. Specifically I have been adding PDF files to a FB page, but cannot open the document when browsing in Firefox. I can open it, when using EDGE.

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.

I closed a PDF file but can not move it to another folder. Windows says it is open in firefox. I closed firefox and it still says it is open in firefox. I even restarted windows and it still says it is open in firefox. How do I get firefox to close and release the file?

Hi everyone,

After enabling `privacy.resistFingerprinting = true` in `about:config`, I noticed that Firefox’s built-in PDF viewer (`pdf.js`) is always displayed in **light mode**, even though my system and browser themes are both dark.

I understand that RFP forces `prefers-color-scheme: light` to prevent fingerprinting, but this also affects internal components like the PDF reader. Unfortunately, the PDF viewer doesn’t provide a manual dark mode toggle.

Is there any **official or safe workaround** that allows keeping RFP enabled while still having the PDF viewer use dark colors?

Thanks!

On one PC, pdf files [Type of file : Firefox PDF Document (.pdf)] display with a PDF icon but on a second PC, pdf files [Type of file: PDF File (.pdf)] display with a Firefox icon.

What changes are needed to have pdf files display with a PDF icon on the second PC?

I am a Dropbox user. I have until recently been almost strictly a Google Chrome user. The PDF seamless behavior I have been seeing in Chrome is like this: 1. If I click on a search engine result for a PDF, I see the PDF opened in the browser. 2. If I click on Download at Dropbox, the PDF is downloaded to my PC.

On installing Firefox, the behavior I saw was like this: Whether I clicked on a search engine result or Download at Dropbox, I saw the PDF opened in my browser.

When I changed the Action for Portable Document Format (PDF) (application/pdf) and Portable Document Format (PDF) (application/binary)to "Save File", the PDF downloaded to my PC. But so did search engine links.

I seem to have fixed the issue by making my settings like this: 1. Action for Portable Document Format (PDF) (application/binary) to "Save File" 2. Action for Portable Document Format (PDF) (application/pdf) to "Open in Firefox"

Fingers crossed. ??? I was wondering why it wasn't set up this way on installation.

I am a magazine editor right on deadline and as my Firefox inisted it must be updated I endeavoured to do so and now it will nor allow me to open up and forward any pdfs.Please help.

I'm trying to use Firefox to fill out my tax forms, but while I can save them and view them with Firefox, they're blank when I open them with Adobe or print them. This is, to say the least, NOT USEFUL. What is happening?!?? I'm using Win10 and the latest version of Firefox, and I tried it on an old Mac with the latest version of Firefox as well.
