If you want to view PDFs in Adobe Reader or another PDF reader, you will need to download those to your system first before you can view them. There won't be another way unless extensions come along that integrate the functionality into the browser. What this means for users of the browser is that their only option to view PDF documents in Chrome will be Google's own PDF Viewer. Hello Brandonw, As per the description above, the Create PDF extension is not working with Chrome as its grayed out, Is that correct I have checked the records with your current Adobe ID, and there is no active license/subscription to Acrobat and the Create PDF plug-in will only work if you are subscribed to Acrobat license/subscription. From that moment on, that plug-in, and all others that use NPAPI, won't work anymore in the browser.

I (and 3 of my coworkers) have checked all my settings, made sure the plug-in is enabled and uninstalled and re-installed Chrome multiple times, all with the. What this means basically is that you will be able to use the Adobe Reader plugin until Google makes that policy change in 2014 in the Chrome browser. I really like the Chrome pdf viewer and use it many times a day at work in many processes of my job because it allows me to do some things very quickly that I can't do as easily in Reader. This enables the plug-in on all websites so that PDF documents are again loaded automatically when you load them in the browser.īackground information: The reason for the change is Google's phasing out of all NPAPI plug-ins from 2014 on. The third and final option that you have is to load chrome://plugins in the browser, locate the Adobe Reader plug-in there on the page, and check the "Always allowed" box underneath it.
