This new built-in PDF viewer has problems displaying some fonts. For = example, tips of arrows in commutative diagrams are rendered invisible = and cannot be printed, and in one PDF file posted on the web about = vector spaces, I noticed that the =E2=80=9C+=E2=80=9D and = =E2=80=9C=3D=E2=80=9D signs were invisible and cannot be printed.=20 Internet Explorer, Safari, and Google Chrome were fine, but for those = who use the latest version of Firefox browser to view PDF files, you may = want to let Firefox use a PDF reader plugin like Adobe Reader, Nitro PDF = Reader or Sumatra PDF, if installed. To change from using the built-in PDF viewer to your PDF reader plugin:=20 1. At the top of the Firefox window, find and click on Options. (e.g. = Tools > Options). 2. Select the Applications panel.=20 3. Find Portable Document Format (PDF) in the list and click on it to = select it.=20 4. Click on the drop-down arrow in the Action column for the above entry = and select the Use PDF reader name (e.g. Use Adobe Reader).
