Description

A general-purpose Portable Document Format (PDF) viewer based on Mozilla's PDF.js library

This extension uses Mozilla's pdf.js library to display PDF files in your browser. It will be used as a replacement for the default PDF viewer. This extension supports rendering remote and local PDF files on top frames. The extension provides the same experience as you open PDF files in the Firefox browser.

To allow the extension to parse local PDF files, you need to enable "Access Local Files" in the extension manager.

If you prefer the extension to parse PDF files in frame elements use the right-click context menu checkbox
