Show PDF inline Need to figure out platform approach N/A Alex Limi

Summary

We want to be able to show PDFs inline in the browser on at least the majority of the platforms we support.

Team

  • Feature Manager: Alex Limi (for now)
  • Lead Developer: Josh Aas?
  • Product Manager:
  • QA:
  • UX:
  • Accessibility:
  • Security:
  • Privacy:

Release Requirements

  • Ability to view a PDF document inline on Windows, Mac OS X, and possibly Linux.

Next Steps & Open Issues

  • Figure out what our approach is going to be.

One approach would be to use the platform support for PDF in the cases where it's available, e.g. on Mac OS X via PDFkit: http://code.google.com/p/firefox-mac-pdf/

We could also do a hybrid approach, e.g. use Adobe plugin on Windows, and PDFkit on the Mac.
