Firefox 19 adds built-in PDF reader

February 20th 2013

The latest Firefox adds native PDF support. That's the biggest feature in the release, in addition to bug fixes and improvements for developers.

Firefox for Windows, Mac and Linux introduces a built-in browser PDF viewer that allows you to read PDFs directly within the browser, making reading PDFs easier because you don't have to download the content or read it in a plugin like Reader. For example, you can use the PDF viewer to check out a menu from your favorite restaurant, view and print concert tickets or read reports without having to interrupt your browsing experience with extra clicks or downloads.
