I have the very latest versions of FF and Adobe Acrobat Pro XI and FF Adobe Acorbat Plugin. When I open a PDF (regardless of size) and view it in FF then click the download button then select the option to open in Adobe Acrobat I get the error stating "There was an error opening this document. The file is damaged and could not be repaired. " If I download the file locally THEN open it usually works fine. This happens to me on both Mac and PC. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Have you reinstalled that plugin (Acrobat), or tried to use Firefox's bulit in PDF reader (PDF.js).
