Default pdf Viewer does not work correctly

On this pdf, page 1 will not display, but displays fine in IE and Chrome. If you download the pdf, it displays just fine. So the issue is definitely FireFox, here is the url:
http://www.powergatellc.com/pdfs/SNP-G12.pdf
On this pdf, the Firefox has added grey boxes around the images. These boxes do not appear in IE or Chrome or when you download the file, here is the url:
http://www.powergatellc.com/pdfs/SNP-G20.pdf
Problems these are all throughout my client's website with a library of over 700 pdfs. This is causing major issues. Please tell me you are aware of these issues and already working on a fix, otherwise, I will have no choice but to put a disclaimer on the website to not use FireFox, which would look bad to the client and FireFox.
Please advise as soon as you can.

We are seeing thiss isue on Windows 7 PC's running current revs of FireFox.

We have this problem as well. Unfortunately after years of only supporting IE and finally rewriting our site to be standards compliant we are going to have to force users back to IE because of this issue. It's not feasible for us to walk users through changing the default viewer. The default should stay Adobe (if installed) until a more robust native version is available. I understand you want to promote free and open tools but if they don't work, it's just not good enough.

  • The default PDF viewer does not work

    I understand Firefox has a default PDF viewer, but it is not working on my Mac OS 10.6.8. When I click on a pdf document, nothing happens.

    When you click a link to a PDF you get a blank page, or a black background with an empty progress bar, or you get absolutely nothing at all?
    Can you try changing your setting as described in the following article to launch the PDF outside Firefox and see whether that works? After that test, you can change back and try the internal viewer again. [[How to disable the built-in PDF viewer and use another viewer]]
    Any luck?

    I reset my preferences to make mac mail my default, but after a brief time it keeps resetting itself back to the former eudora default.

  • If statement within a view is not working correctly ?

    Hi all,
    maybe i am wrong but i think the if statement within a view is not working correctly. See code down below.
    I would like to use the Hallo World depending on the page attribute isFrame with or without all the neccessary html tags. Therefore i have embedded the htmlb tags in an if statement. But for any reason if isframe is initial it isn't working. It would be great if anybody could help me.
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
      <htmlb:content design="design2003">
         <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    hallo world
    <% if not isframe is initial. %>
         </htmlb:page>
      </htmlb:content>
    <% endif. %>
    thanks in advance and best regards
    Matthias Hlubek

    Matthias,
    The short answer: your example is <b>NOT</b> going to work. The long answer will probably 5 pages to describe. So first let me rewrite the example so that it could work, and then give a short version of the long answer. Do not be disappointed if it is not totally clear. It is rather complicated. (See the nice form of IF statements that are possible since 620.)
    <%@page language="abap"%>
    <%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb"%>
    <% if isframe is <b>NOT</b> initial. %>
    <htmlb:content design="design2003">
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
        hallo world
      </htmlb:page>
    </htmlb:content>
    <% else. %>
      hallo world
    <% endif. %>
    So why does your example not work? Let us start with a simple tag:
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
      </htmlb:page>
    Now, for each tag, we have effectively the opening part (<htmlb:page>), an optional body, and then the closing part (</htmlb:page>). We are now at the level of the BSP runtime processing one tag. What the runtime does not know, is whether the tag wants to process its body or not. Each tag can decide dynamically at runtime whether the body should be processed. So the BSP compiler generates the following code:
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    You should actually just debug your BSP code at ABAP level, and then you will immediately see all of this. Now, let us mix in your example with our code generation. First you simplified example:
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      <htmlb:page title = "Top Level Navigation view">
    <% endif. %>
    <% if isframe is NOT initial. %>
      </htmlb:page>
    <% endif. %>
    And then with our generated code. Look specifically at how the IF/ENDIF blocks suddenly match!
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      DATA: tag TYPE REF TO cl_htmlb_page.
      CREATE OBJECT tag.
      tag->title = 'Top Level Navigation view'.
      IF tag->DO_AT_BEGINNING( ) = CONTINUE.
    endif.
    if isframe is NOT initial.
      ENDIF.
      tag->DO_AT_END( ).
    endif.
    You can see that your ENDIF statements are closing IF blocks generated by the BSP compiler. Such a nesting will not work. This is a very short form of the problem, there are a number of variations, and different types of the same problem.
    The only way to solve this problem, is probably to put the body into a page fragment and include it like I did above with the duplicate HelloWorld strings. But this duplicates source code. Better is to put body onto a view, that can be processed as required.

  • Layout Options - Page Order Does Not Work Correctly

    I have a Photosmart C7280 All-in-One printer.  The Layout Option - Page Order does not work as expected.  The User Guide (page 95) states that the default for a multiple page document is to print first page first.  The manual states that to print last page first requires one to change the Page Order to "Back to Front".  For my Excel, Word, Internet Explorer and PDF pages, I need to leave the Page Order as "Front to Back" if I want the last page to print first.  This makes no sense.  In addition, I can't get my Quicken reports to print last page first no matter what I try.  Does anyone no why the Page Order does not work as expected for Excel, Word, IE and PDF, and does not work at all for Quicken?

    Keisha,
    If you uncheck the "show" option, then the corresponding HTML for that item is not rendered on the page. Thus, when you try to inspect that item via APEX_APPLICATION.G_F02, it simply doesn't exist.
    One trick that I use when I want to have hidden items on the page, but not make them take up any space, is to concatenate them to items that will be visible.
    Using your query as an example, I would re-write it like this:
    SELECT APEX_ITEM.CHECKBOX(1,ROWNUM,'CHECKED')ATTENDED,
    APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(2,C.PARTY_ID)
      || APEX_ITEM.HIDDEN(3,C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE)
      || C.PARTY_TYPE_CODE PARTY_TYPE_CODE,
    S.PERSON_ID,
    S.PERSON_FIRST_NAME AS NAME,
    C.PARTY_CASE_ID
    FROM CASE.PARTY C
    INNER JOIN DN.PERSON S
    ON C.PARTY_ID = S.PERSON_ID
    WHERE C.PARTY_CASE_ID = :P18_CDBCASE_ID
    AND C.PARTY_SEQ_NO = :P18_SEQThus, the second APEX report column will contain the HTML for the hidden items PARTY_ID & PARTY_TYPE_CODE, as well as the value for PARTY_TYPE_CODE. When you submit the page, you should not encounter any issues.
    Thanks,

  • Since I upgraded to Yosemite, my CS5 does not work correctly.

    Since I upgraded to Yosemite in October, my photoshop CS5 does not work correctly. When right clicking to change a brush size, the adjuster when moving to the right or left, either sticks or moves radically. As I set the size of the brush and move my cursor back to the image, the adjuster moves with the cursor.
    Help!

  • Help viewer does not work after update to 10.4.4

    Since updating to 10.4.4 my Help viewer does not work, and all of the troubleshooting fixes suggested in other threads have not had any success in resolving this. I've noted that when I go to Users>Library>Documentation>Help there is no mac.help file - can someone tell me if that means that I've lost the file altogether and need to reinstall it? I get to the first screen of the viewer, but the links from there don't work. Thanks for any help that you can provide!

    Thanks for your suggestion. I downloaded OnyX and ran the cleaning function. After restarting, I opened Help and once again the first screen appeared fine. But again most of the links did not work, though those under the "What's New" heading did work. I might add that I had previously tried a variety of suggestions posted in another thread, which included deleting from the caches folder in Home>Library several files such as com.apple.helpui and help.plist in the Preferences folder. (As noted in my previous post this evening, I also created another user but that also did not have any effect.) Any other ideas? Thanks

    Hi pissedadobeuser,
    Does this issue occur with any particular web page?
    Are you able to print the webpage to 'Adobe PDF' to convert it to pdf.

    Also some videos I load up on youtube look like this.
    I have been researching for an answer but can't find it, please help me.

    All you can do is to test it with latest webcam driver.

    If the same happen again visit nearest Toshiba service and show them how it looks like. Maybe the cam must be exchanged.

  • Remote does not work correctly after update

    Hello,
    the subject explain it already:
    After upgrading to 2.3 the apple remote does not work correctly anymore:
    I need to push the buttons twice, and than atv is only reacting sometimes.
    Any ideas?
    BR
    Frank

    Same problem here. First, I thought it was the Apple remote's battery. I replaced that and the problem persisted. I then used my digital video camera to verify that the remote was actually transmitting infrared, it was. In frustration, I tapped the buttons rapidly while pointing at the Apple TV. The Apple TV responded. The next button press it failed to respond. I tapped rapidly again and it finally responded. After many many rapid presses, while pointing directly at the Apple TV, it finally began responding to all presses. Once I'd regained control (I thought) I unpaired and re-paired the remote. Everything continued to work. At that time I also saw that I could "learn" another remote. So, I set up my Samsung TV remote. Sweet. Until the Apple TV went into screensaver mode again and I had to go through the same rapid button press sequence... with either the Apple remote or my learned Samsung remote. Conclusion, since the Apple TV will become fully responsive after the rapid button press sequence, it is certainly a software related problem.

    I have a manual that contains headings and index entries that contain less than and greater than characters, < and >. The Publish to Responsive HTML5 function escapes these correctly in the main body of the text but does not work correctly in either the Contents or the Index of the generated HTML. In the Contents the words are completely missing and in the index entries the '\' characters that are required in the markers remain in the entry but the leading less than symbol and the first character of the word is deleted; hence what should appear as <dataseries> appears as \ataseries\>. I believe this is a FMv12 bug. Has anyone else experienced this? Is the FM team aware and working on a fix. Any suggestions for a workaround?

    The Index issue is more complicated since in order to get the < and > into the index requires the entry itself to be escaped. So, in order to index '<x2settings>' you have to key '\<x2settings\>'. Looking at the generated index entry in the .js file we see '<key name=\"\\2settings\\&gt;\">. This is a bit of a mess and produces an index entry of '\2settings\>'. This ought to be '<key name=\"&amp;lt;x2settings&amp;gt;\" >'. I have tested this fix and it works - but the worst of it is that the first character of the index entry has been stripped out. Consequently I cannot fix this with a few global changes - and I have a lot of index entries of this type. I'm looking forward to a response to this since I cannot publish this document in its current state.

  • Focus under Win2k does not work correctly

    Hi,
    we've found out that the focus does not work correctly under Windows 2000 in
    Seamless Mode (App is a Windows Application running on Windows Terminal Server
    2003), the same application has no problems under Windows XP, Apple Macintosh
    and Linux.
    Example: The application has a button which pop's up a small calendar window
    giving that window focus. In Tarantella under Win2k however you just see the
    window popping up shortly and then going in the background. As the window is in
    the background and you can't get the window back and you also cannot work
    further in that application as the rest is inactive.
    Only way is to do a right-click on the application in the taskbar, which brings
    the window in the foreground again. What makes this problem even harder to
    analyze is, that it sometimes even works correctly (around 3 of 10 times).
    We've mostly recognized this with modal windows. The native client does not have
    this problem, however as far as I know it does not support seamless mode.
    2. The second problem we got is, that if you click with the mouse into the
    initializing Window while the application starts up after you have clicked on an
    application Link in SGD (I mean the Pre-Login window of Windows which shortly
    shows up just before the Login Process begins),
    the application is not started seamlessly but is started within that window and
    you have no chance but closing an restarting the application to get it in
    seamless mode. This is seen on all Client Operating Systems by us and not only
    Windows 2000.
    The Client runs:
    Windows 2000 SP4 all updates installed
    Java: 1.5.0-5
    Browser: IE6.0 and Firefox 1.0.7
    Server: Windows 2003 Terminal Server (all updates installed)
    Tarantella: 4.20.909
    I hope that someone has at least a workaround.
    Regards
    Carsten

    I have organized some testcases attached are 3 Test Programs which work
    nice natively but got these problems under Tarantella under every Windows
    Operating System (the error is not Windows 2000 as I previously mentioned but
    also occurs on Windows XP).
    The interesting thing is that the Test Program made with .NET does not show this
    problem.
    Could someone please test these and tell if this error is reproducible on your
    systems as well ?
    Run these Testprograms natively, they show no misbehavior.
    Execute this from a SGD Webtop Session in Seamless Mode, see that
    the Modal window is not modal but shifts into the background on every 2 -3 click.
