I recently was forced to update my Adobe Acrobat Reader from v11 to v2019.021 (Reader DC) because I encountered an important .pdf file which wouldn't open in the older version.

This is the sort of file that the Mozilla pdf.js viewer probably won't be able to handle.

... I would much prefer to have it open as before in the SeaMonkey window. How do I do that? Thanks!

Install an up-to-date version of the pdf.js viewer extension, as below, which will handle most PDFs in a browser window or tab as if they were real HTML; use its "Open in another viewer" function if it doesn't show the PDF properly: that allows you to open a downloaded PDF in Acrobat Reader or whichever PDF tool you select.

No, I was not aware of this extension. It only has been downloaded 46 times and has no reviews, so I'm a bit hesitant to try it.

That's just the SM version. The FF version was long ago adopted into the browser package.

...

It is not required. Looks like it has 140 users to me.

The better way for me is to use Firefox which doesn't allow the Adobe Acrobat Plugin anymore and has a built-in PDF viewer.

...... ie, the same add-on that is linked above in its SM version, but
shipped with the browser.
