When navigating to a pdf file, the pdf is embedded into the document with an "embed" element. You can hit ctrl + shift + I and look on the Elements tab to see this.
In the extension, in \data\content_script\inject.js, on line 208, when
mainDIV.appendChild(iFrame);is executed, (where an iframe is appended to the div that was inserted earlier in the document), the content of the embedded document gets scribbled on by the extension. If you look at the Elements tab in the developer tools, you'll see that the embed element now has a whole document as a child node. That shouldn't be there. It must be replacing the original pdf content.Same thing happens in Chrome.
Still need to investigate more.
A simple workaround might be to just avoid the appendChild call if document.location.href contains ".pdf" or something like that. But, figuring out why appending an iframe to the document clobbers the embed's document (maybe Chromium bug/change) would be better.

Here's a minimal test extension that I believe represents the issue when trying to view a PDF. In short, adding an iframe to the document (the document that embeds the pdf with an EMBED element when you navigate to a PDF file) via an extension, clobbers the embedded document loaded by the EMBED element.

Goto the URL
chrome://flags/#mime-handler-view-in-cross-process-frameand disable it. If that works, you can use that as a workaround for now. -

The fix for this is in Chromium 82.0.4045.0. It might be a while before the fix reaches stable though. Until then, use can still disable this flag.

Or, you can try this modified version of the extension that tries to work around the issue for now. See the readme.txt in it for details of the fix. Download the zip file, extract it, goto the URL
opera://extensionsin Opera, turn on developer mode, click "load unpacked" and point it to the extracted folder (where manifest.json is at). -

Why doesn't it work on google searches? This Sucks! I've been using this for a long time, but it's frustrating that it doesn't work on any site by google not just google searches.

@pedrowolfp2 Yes, you need to go to the extension settings and enable it for search engines.

Selected text, clicked bubble.
popup - "Addon needs to update some data from 'translate.google.com', please try again after few seconds." Then it opens a new tab to google tranlsate with nothing in it.
I expected the translation to be in the pop-up.
Happens again and again -

it was working perfectly, but for two days it just says "addon is updating some data from google translate", opens up translate.google.com and does nothing.
i'm using this addon for years and remember seeing this update prompts before. this is different from normal update process, it constantly does the same thing
i tried removing and installing again but it didnt work.
