Viewing PDFs in your browser (Chrome, Firefox, etc.)

Answer

Many browsers have a built-in PDF (Portable Document Format) viewer.  Sometimes these built-in viewers do not work well with online resources.  Links or printing may not work as expected.

If PDFs will not display or function properly, here are some suggestions:

  • Change your browser's settings to view PDFs using another PDF reader (such as Adobe's)
  • Download the PDF to your computer and then open it outside of the browser by using a PDF reader such as Adobe Acrobat Reader DC.
  • Try an alternative web browser such as Firefox/Safari/IE or Microsoft Edge.

Most publishers consider Adobe's PDF Reader to be the standard viewer, but other viewers often work fine.
