[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1395813"] Ah, that explains everything. What you have going on is that the built-in PDF handler in FF and Safari (which had apparently been set to download the files and open them in Preview) has been disabled by lovely, lovely Adobe Reader. Wasn't that thoughtful of them? Only it doesn't work right, does it? What you want to do is open Acrobat, go into its preferences and UNcheck the option to display PDFs in browsers. [/QUOTE]
