Hello!

I'm trying to use the built-in PDF viewer but I can't find the PDF option in my Applications panel. Is there a way to fix this?

Thanks in advance, Rota

Isisombululo esikhethiwe

You can check the pdfjs.disabled pref on the about:config page to see whether the build-in PDF viewer is enabled.

You can check the value of plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types on the about:config page to see if it includes application/pdf. If you want to use the built-in PDF Viewer then you can remove >application/pdf from the value of this pref.
