Public bug reported: Setting: vanilla Natty installation, Firefox 4 and the Adobe PDF plugin from Adobe Reader 9.
Instead of trigerring the PDF plugin and displaying the PDF within the browser, a dialog appears asking how to handle the file. To reproduce go to http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/summary?doi=10.1.1.110.6657&rank=1 If you click the PDF button unter "cached", the PDF is not loaded within the browser. If you however click, for example the second link under "Downloads" everything works as should. This seems to be a problem with several journal sites. behaviour is the same when using mozplugger + evince instead of the Adobe PDF plugin, or using the Adobe Reader 8 plugin. It seems to be related to how Firefox 4 handles file downloads. ** Affects: ubuntu Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: firefox pdf plugin -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/799337 Title: Firefox does not display PDF using plugin To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/799337/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
