Hi there. I really like the new PDF reader. It's almost everything I want. The one feature I didn't see, which I find so useful in my work, is the ability to easily break up documents. This is a feature of Preview on the Mac, which allows you to drag pages from the thumbnails list onto the desktop to create a new document. The only other PDF reader out there that seems to have this feature without paying for it is Wondershare.   ... View more

I enjoy reading the print format of Wikipedia pages much more than the web page and would like to be able to read in this manner in the Firefox PDF reader without having to save the PDF to disk/Downloads since I'll end up deleting them after reading anyway. Having the ability to do this for any website would be great. As an option in the print menu (ctrl+P, cmd+P) as an alternative to "save to PDF" would be great. ... View more

There is a PDF feature, which are called "layers". I see this as an advantage, that Firefox supports those, and also supports enabling / disabling (set visibility) them when a PDF file is opened in the browser itself. However, when someone want to print this file (with some layers enabled and some disabled), it would always print everything (all layers enabled / set to visible), therefore it would be good, if the current layer settings would be also applied when someone prints the document.   ...

It would be great if you could embed a PDF into the body of an email using Thunderbird similar to how you can in Outlook by inserting it as an object. You could have the ability to embed either all the pages of the pdf, or just a range/single page into the email. ... View more

Before Firefox could open .PDF's i used Acrobat Reader as so many do 🙂 But now i prefer Firefox, however, when i'm in my Windows Explorer, i do not have a preview of the PDF file anymore when i click on the PDF. That is unfortunate. Would love this function back 🙂   also i change the icons of files on my windows, but after each update of Firefox, my custom .PDF icons are back to the Firefox default .pdf icon. and then i have to change it back again.. ( not so bad but firefox updates very very regulary lol ) ... View more

Hello, one of the main usability differences between google chrome and mozilla firefox is that in chrome when copying text from a pdf and pasting it into a text editor, the text is pasted without line breaks. The same does not occur in firefox, which after pasting the text, it is necessary to remove each line break. In my view, it would be interesting if firefox could also implement this functionality of pasting texts with line breaks automatically removed. Yours sincerely, Vinicius ... View more

If Firefox is used to display a PDF file with a colored annotation, the background of the content is displayed in the set color, but not the annotation icon. This is always yellow. It would be very nice, if this symbol would also be displayed in the set color. ... View more

This is a comment regarding the "Bookmark/Edit this page" star-shaped icon that is at the right-hand edge of the URL/search bar. When I click on a PDF link I'd like there to be a text field entitled "Originating URL" which is automatically filled in. As things stand, at the moment the local C drive location of a downloaded PDF is displayed, but NOT the URL that the PDF was originally downloaded from. This is a serious shortcoming and something I find seriously annoying. Furthermore, I'd like to be asked how I want to name a PDF after it's been downloaded. PDFs often have pretty much random names that don't relate to the PDF's title or else the headline in the PDF in question - either would be much more useful than some random file name. ... View more

Thunderbird has got extremely fast pdf viewer built in. I think it would be a good idea to make it standalone application. Becouse there are not so many free and fast pdf viewer applications. Adobe and Foxit are big and slow like elephant. Good applications like PDF-Xchange Viewer, PDFLite are discountinued. There's only Sumatra PDF application, very fast and open source project. So, I think there is a space on market for another ultra light pdf viewer. ... View more

It is strongly recommended that users are warned to use the editor-specific save button to save document with all their changes. Classic Ctrl+S page/file save saves blank form, without any changes/edits made by user. PDF editor is a great tool. It came just when I needed, I was about to fill a contract. Form with 20+ fields, my personal data, car data... I spent more than half an hour and then I saved it as it is intuitive - with Ctrl+S (same as "File - Save As). Then came the shock the next time I opened it, all the document was empty. God how angry I was. ... View more

I am using Firefox since the early 2000s and always stuck with it. The app is great in many ways but very often I have PDFs that are displayed in the browser but that just can’t be saved/shared on iOS. Either they are considered a „blob“ file in the iOS share dialog or the PDF is a saved/downloaded but then can’t be opened in the „files“ app for example. Since PDF has been around even longer than Firefox and since it is such a core doc format this really is a constant pain point for me. Because the mentioned files/websites always work in Safari. ...

Problem: When opening PDFs in Firefox that feature fillable fields for text, entering too many characters for the field will result in the text getting cut off as shown in the attached image. Potential solution: When filling in fields in PDFs using Edge, Chrome, and Adobe Reader, font size will begin decreasing in order to accommodate more text than can fit in the field using the starting font size. ...

Previously in Firefox for Android, following a link to a PDF would prompt to download the PDF. It now opens the PDF in an internal PDF viewer, without saving it to the device. For some sites, it seems possible to download (by using the "open in app" button, then downloading via the device's PDF viewer), but for some sites this does not seem possible, since there is no "open in app" button. A solution to this would be to add a setting which restores the previous behaviour of downloading the PDF, since downloading PDFs is an essential feature of a browser.   ... View more
