Use this plugin to choose which PDF viewer you'd like to use when viewing documents in any Mac OS X non-IE browser.

Mac OS X 10.3 or later users can view PDF documents directly in a Web browser without problems with PDF Browser Plugin 2.0.

This plug-in meshes easily into an existing Web browser and offers quick access to toolbar buttons for the most widely used layout options for PDFs.

The plug-in was designed to leverage the in-built Quartz technology of Mac OS X, which gives you the ability to view PDF documents with the same high quality graphics that exist in other Mac OS X applications.

Using the plug-in, PDFs are quickly rendered for view, and the plug-in viewer offers standard viewing options, plus lets you zoom into documents and split documents in half for comparison of text and graphics.

The plug-in also displays table of contents if available in the document, as well as giving support for links, forms and other common annotations in PDF documents.

The plug-in is not compatible with Internet Explorer.

The site-license of PDF Browser Plugin 2.0 runs $69 and can be purchased at the Kagi Online Store.
