Re: iOS safari crashes upon opening PDFs

2014-08-22 Thread 'Chris Blouch' via MacVisionaries
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.

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
