PDF plugin "Out of date"

Errata! Disable the Adobe Reader And keep the default Chrome PDF Viewer enabled, that should allow you to download the PDF for further processing.

Yeah. Thats what I do with PDF.js. Let it load in there and if I need to open it up in Acrobat.

I got the same problem not long ago? and I immediately tried updating my Adobe Reader to the latest version. Alas, it didnt help. Similar problem with Avast antivirus discovered that it wanted 11.0.09 version on Windows XP SP3, while the 11.0.08 is the latest one for this OS. The 11.0.09 is the latest one for Windows 7 or 8. Is Opera's problem of the same kind?

I also highly dislike seeing the PDF in the browser. I was able to disable it in the PDF reader (Foxit reader as well as Adobe PDF reader) and now Opera forces me to use an internal PDF viewer... AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!
OK, disabling the internal PDF viewer works, but for some reason, sometimes Adobe still tries to "steal" the setting and displays PDF in the browser... (even so there is no tick in Adobe setting to display in browser...)
I wish there was an easy way (like it was in Opera 12) to simply say what file extension I want to open with which application to give me back the control I want.
I am also not a fan of updating all applications all the time.
I got an antivirus software and I normally do not go to "insecure" sites. So why should I bother with updating an application that works for me? With new versions just come new bugs that you are needing to find new solutions (AGAIN) for. I rather live with the old bugs and know how to deal with them -

I had this same issue, and finally found a resolution.
download this pdf viewer from opera, and without restarting opera, the pdfs started loading.

not sure about print issues b/c i haven't tried that.

I have the same issue. Is there any way to simply bypass this error and force Adobe Plugin to work? On another machine I have enabled the Chrome/Opera PDF Viewer and this has one big side effect that when I download PDF file from a site and click on the downloads to open it instead of opening in Adobe Acrobat it opens inside Opera in the PDF viewer.

I just found out all I need to do was update Adobe Reader.
