Foo Bar Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 Hello, I'm unable to open pdf within Maxthon 5 When I try to open a pdf, I get the 'plug-in disabled' page I've tried with and without associating MX5 to pdf: no change Has anybody a solution to bring back pdf viewing in MX5 ? Despite that problem, MX5 remains my favorite browser Solved by 7twenty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bayas Posted November 3, 2017 Report Share Posted November 3, 2017 I wrote an extension to view PDF files without running plug-ins. It uses Mozilla's pdf.js viewer. I hate Adobe Flash and Reader plug-ins, so I turned off plug-ins and got rid of them in Maxthon. You can download it with the link below. https://github.com/abdllhbyrktr/mx-pdfjs-viewer/releases Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
