1. Open a PDF file in a new tab so it opens in the browser's internal PDF
viewer. Here's one.

Determination-Letter.pdf
2. Click the 4-outward-arrows (fullscreen?) icon on the PDF toolbar. Its
tooltip when you hover on it says, "Switch to Presentation Mode"
3. Observe that Presentation Mode is not letterboxed.
PDF Presentation Mode is distinct from browser full screen (F11 key) and
from maximize.
Is this exploitable at all? Is the internal PDF API fingerprintable? Tor
Browser warns when downloading to not open files in external viewers that
could circumvent Tor.
