The links in my pdf's are not working correclty. Your in-browser viewer is bad!!!
The viewers of the pdfs i put online should not have to download a plug-in or adjust their settings to get the pdf's to work correctly. These pdf's work perfectly fine on every other browser (INCLUDING IE!!!).
Every link in my document is off by one page. This is not cool.
If you cant fix this, why cant you go back to they old way of displaying pdfs?
Chosen solution
If you let the catalog load fully, then the internal links on the first page work correctly. If you try to load a URL that has the #page=nnn on the end, then there is a problem. This bug was supposed to have been fixed many months ago (Workaround for issue 3068), but either this document has the same problem for a different reason, or the change hasn't made its way into Firefox 24.

hello, the pdf viewer is still somewhat experimental and under very active development - you could try if the same error is occurring in the current development version, which you can download as an addon from http://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/extensions/firefox/pdf.js.xpi
in case it has the the same rendering problems, you could then file a bug report at https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues (a github account is necessary for it though) - please also provide a sample document where the error is apparent!
this was not helpful but thanks for trying and i hope this is fixed soon.
I see how you dont give a link, may you please provide a link?
Yeah, sure http://www.gimaticusa.com/pdfs/GimaticUSAHandling.pdf
All the links are off by one page. When I click on 'open in a different viewer' they work fine.
They also work correctly in IE, Safari, Google, etc...
Thanks
alright, well have a good weekend. I hope firefox can fix this soon.
An 815 page PDF file?

Is there any other solution? Open this link "http://www.gimaticusa.com/pdfs/GimaticUSAHandling.pdf" on Fire fox browser and on last page (815) , Email link not working. But in other browser like IE , chrome.. etc, it is working fine..
Hi nicegaurav, it took forever to get to page 815...
I don't think those have embedded links in the PDF -- which the viewer should be able to handle. I think they are just text.
Adobe's reader has the option to detect and "linkify" text that matches a URL pattern, including web addresses and email addresses. There is a pending "issue" to add that to the PDF viewer, but I don't know how long it actually will take before it rolls out.
Enable automatic URL hyperlinking - currently says nobody is assigned

I'm not sure why it would take forever unless it is the file size of 90 MB as there is a scroll bar and an item in the toolbar drop-down list to go to the last page.
I agree with jscher2000 that these are just a text links.
