How to make firefox uses acroread to open an attached pdf file?
Posted: 2018/07/27 06:38:46
<r>With the latest firefox, I can no longer "automatically" open an attached pdf file in an email. Previously I was able to <br/>
view the pdf files since the Open with seems to tied to acroread.<br/>
<br/>
Now, I do not how to configure to use /usr/bin/acroread to make the new firefox to open pdf file by default.<br/>
<br/>
More specifically, I have a small popup window that says<br/>
<br/>
You have chosen to open:<br/>
img--any.pdf<br/>
<br/>
which is: application/pdf type<br/>
from: <URL url="https://outlook.office.com">https://outlook.office.com</URL><br/>
<br/>
What should Firefox do with this file?<br/>
Open with Firefox Web Browser (default) <br/>
<br/>
Other...<br/>
<br/>
But I cannot stick in /usr/bin/acroread in the Other.<br/>
<br/>
May I have missed something.
Note: I saved this post as draft and the gibberish html codes appear.. not my problem.
The new firefox is quite awful to use, to be frank. I have not gained anything except to get some frustration.
