Every so often something changes and I have to re-figure out how to get PDF
files from the web to open the way I want.
Recently I upgraded from Acrobat 9 to Acrobat XI and things have gotten jumbled
again.
Now when I download a PDF file, it opens in a Seamonkey tab using Reader
instead of Acrobat 9. I can save the file, then open it in Acrobat 9 or XI in a
separate window, but I'd rather not do that over and over!
I seem to remember that this behavior is controlled by the order in which
Reader and Acrobat was installed -- is that correct? If so, it would seem PDFs
should now open in a Seamonkey tab using Acrobat XI.
I just disabled Reader in the Add-ons Manager (where perversely it identifies
itself as Acrobat!). Now I'm asked if I want to open the file in Acrobat (in a
separate window), which works, but is not my preferred behavior.
Does anyone know how I can reset Acrobat XI to open in a Seamonkey tab?
(BTW, I've tried some of the other alternatives (PDF.js, Foxit, Nitro PDF) but
none of them offer the functionality of the full Acrobat product.)
I was writing a LONG message detailing all the suggestions I followed -- I
saved it so I could restart Seamonkey, but who knows where it went!
Anyway, thanks for all the ideas; I'm working through them one by one. So far
the behavior is unchanged -- but I'm getting confident I'll figure it out!
