Firefox pdf.js not working with clippers

Hello!

I'm using firefox dev edition, both Mendeley and Evernote addons have stopped working with PDF files.

I have reset the key "disable_full_page_plugin_for_types" in about:config (using right click > reset), because the value was "application/pdf" (now is blank) but I see no improvements.

When using the web version of the pdf.js both clippers work as expected https://mozilla.github.io/pdf.js/web/viewer.html

What am I doing wrong?

Firefox 60+ treats the built-in viewer as part of the browser ("chrome") and blocks extensions from injecting content scripts into the viewer. As you noted, the online demo is not affected because it is a pure web app.

You can use the web app to load local PDF files as a workaround (see https://support.mozilla.org/questions/1221277), but for PDFs on the web, I haven't thought of a fix.

Hi! Thanks for the pretty quick reply!!

Mendeley support (where I was before investigating the issue) told me they've installed FF Dev Edition and the addon and it worked as expected, I thought it was just me because of that, so why doesn't this affect them?

Also, so what exactly the disable_full_page_plugin_for_types "application/pdf" key means?

And if I understand your post correctly, this is a 'feature' of 'chrome' and you guys are working on how to make it work again?

Thank you!

Hi amacs, Mozilla browsers distinguish between the "content" and the "chrome"; another company liked this so much they named a bunch of products after it. But I digress.

Good question. I don't use Developer Edition so I don't know whether there is a workaround in DE. Or possibly they didn't try the exact feature that isn't working for you?

Also, so what exactly the disable_full_page_plugin_for_types "application/pdf" key means?

This is obsolete now. It refers to plugins like the Adobe Acrobat plugin which could embed into a tab. Flash is the only plugin that could still do that and it doesn't handle PDFs.

lol, I feel you.

Donno, I even made a video for them, their reply was that they couldn't replicate it.

Well, fml.

Good luck on sorting this out and thanks for the answers, you're awesome on this!
