If you haven't installed the Adobe reader stuff PDF files should just
open up in Safari as well. For example, if you go here in Safari on OSX:
http://www.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/acrobat/pdfs/pdf_open_parameters.pdf
that should just load up a document and then you can interact and
VO-down to read through the text. Apparently some bug in iOS makes
Safari crash with VO running on that platform when trying to load a PDF.

Hi there
Maybe I missed something here, but I have always opened pdf files on my iPhone
with iBooks. Are you supposed to be able to use something else on the iPhone?
As for the Mac, I have not been able to use anything else except either Preview
or PDF Pen Pro. By the way, Nic, I have able to use PDF Pen Pro to read pdf
files fine. I think you said that it didn't work ok for you for reading. I use
PDF Pen Pro to OCR image pdf files because it does it very fast and then them
just fine. I guess I better check the newest update and see if all of that has
changed. I sure hope not.

Interesting. I went to google, searched on PDF example and then found a link called
"Parameters for Opening PDF Files - Adobe" which I would think is a pretty
reasonable test since it's on Adobe's site. After double-tapping it Safari crashed. I'm
on the latest iOS 7.1.2. Seems very reproducible.

Hi
Does anybody know the following?
When opening an URL, eg. Out of Google searches, which links to a PDF file, iOS
Safari would crash and close with voiceover running. with voiceover turned
off, nothing happens. in some cases, usual websites are affected as well. I
observe this behavior since the last updates of iOS without any changes. Would
be interesting to know your findings as if it helps to find out whether it's a
specific voiceover issue.
