I'm using firefox in my linux-distro (slackware), and using it as default pdf viewer. So i'm finding a way to open my pdf file by firefox with no navigation-toolbar.

As i known, application have options when run it, so is there a run option like `firefox -nonagigation` for firefox ?

There's no such command line option.

Use one of the following styles in Stylish (but not both).

The first one hides the navigation toolbar when viewing local PDFs only, while the second does the same for all PDFs. 

@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#main-window[stylish-url^="file:///"][stylish-domain="pdf.js"] #nav-bar {
  visibility: collapse !important;
}
@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);

#main-window[stylish-url$=".pdf"] #nav-bar {
  visibility: collapse !important;
}
