Pretty good, I think the smart paste extension has the most updated version of pdf.js

0 issues or problems. Smooth, fast, not sure why it has such a low rating.

Recommended software. Solved one of the major problems with chromebooks for me. All other pdf viewers I have tried are utterly due to excessive lagginess, seconds and more. This one updates pages OK, also seems to do a much better job of navigating page numbers.
