Oh finally, PERFECT. Someone has slapped together the correct way (Mac only) to view PDFs in Firefox. (Downloading the file and opening it in Preview: incorrect. Installing Adobe's asinine plugin: incorrect. Click on the link and it just shows the damn PDF, right-click if you need anything fancy: correct. Thanks for playing, we have our winner.)

(Yes, Safari got this right years ago.)

Yeah, so do I! It doesn't exist for Mac, though, mostly because an equivalent program ("Preview") is built into the operating system.

(And Preview is based on an underlying part of the OS called "PDFKit," and the thing I linked is basically just a way to access PDFKit from inside the browser.)
