- Adobe Reader Plugin Chrome Like many other browsers, Google Chrome comes with its own PDF plugin for viewing and printing PDF files. To install the Adobe Reader plugin instead, you will have to deactivate Chrome's native PDF reader. To do this, follow this procedure.
- By default, most web browsers including Google Chrome open PDF documents in the browser window and no longer rely on Adobe Acrobat Reader to open PDF Files. However, people who are used to opening PDF files in Adobe Reader Mode do not like the idea of PDF Files opening in Microsoft Edge or Chrome browser window.
If you install Acrobat Reader DC and then install Acrobat DC Classic or Acrobat XI, the Adobe Acrobat Chrome Extension doesn’t work.
If the following scenario is causing this issue, try the suggested solution below.
Install Acrobat Reader DC, and then opt in for the Adobe Acrobat Chrome extension on the first launch.
Now install either Acrobat DC Classic or Acrobat XI.
Open Chrome and enable the Chrome extension (if you did not do so in step 2).
Use the extension to convert an HTML file to PDF, or open a PDF file in Chrome.
The extension remains in a waiting state and nothing happens.
Solution: Open Acrobat DC and close it after a few seconds
Try the following workaround:
- Open Acrobat Reader DC, and close it after a few seconds. Now try using the Chrome extension to open a PDF file or convert an HTML file to a PDF file.
Adobe bundles the Acrobat Chrome extension with Adobe Acrobat Reader DC so that you can easily open PDFs in Reader while browsing the web. Once installed and enabled, the extension will:
- Open PDF files in the Acrobat Reader desktop app.
- Offer a consistent and reliable PDF viewing experience.
- Provide access to all the tools you need to add comments, fill forms, and sign PDFs.
Note:
You can easily disable the extension at any time. The extension does not read the content of your PDFs or any content on the sites you visit.
The extension is not installed automatically with Acrobat Reader. If Acrobat Reader is the default PDF owner on your computer, you're prompted to install the extension when you launch Acrobat Reader. Once the extension is installed, you must activate it before use.
