Hi all. I just installed the 64-bit PM 27.3 in Xubuntu 16.04 (x64). I also have Foxit Reader installed.
There seems to be no pdf plug-in available in PM, not even pdfjs. Seems the Linux version of Foxit does not install a plugin with the program. Is there a solution here that does not involve Wine or Adobe Reader? I prefer to view pdf links in the browser.
Thanks much.

How long has this plugin been available? Now if only the Facebook issues are resolved, I can get my wife using Pale Moon again.

Thanks much. That is just what I needed. It moves PM back in front of FF with CTR tweaks at the top of my browser list. Moonchild and all other devs and volunteers please keep up the good work.JustOff wrote:Moon PDF Viewer

P.S. It's obvious but I meant to write PM 27.0.3 in my first post. Not a Time Lord, alas.

Off-topic:
Off-topic for the current thread but I'll repeat it here anyhow: Have you tried going in to about:config and setting the preferences for general.useragent.override.fbcdn.net and general.useragent.override.facebook.com to "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:3.0) Goanna/20160101 PaleMoon/27.0.3"? That's been reported to work by a handful of forum users (myself included). Of course, there's no guarantee that it will work for you just because it works for me, but it seems like it's worth a try.helloimustbegoing wrote:Now if only the Facebook issues are resolved, I can get my wife using Pale Moon again.
