Reviews of open in pdf reader:
Does absolutely nothing, does not appear in right-click menu.
Absolutely Useless. Can't sign, amend, save or download. As with most Adobe products a bloated waste of user unfriendly buggy space.
Doesnt work in latest version of chromium browsers like edge, kinza, cent, opera, vivaldi and others. Also it doesnt take as pdf links from sites or searches to view them directly into the browser without or before download. I hope the developer works on this. Also I would dev to make a better way of contacting for users who have bugs or issues or suggestions as I am having issues with user agent extension also as some sites fail to see the user agent set and see the default one. Thanks.
