<![CDATA[Open pdf in Opera workaround]]>I have Opera 22 installed as a portable version on a USB key, running on a MAC that is a work computer (not my personal computer). I was not able to open pdf files in Opera when the "Adobe Acrobat NPAPI Plug-in, Version 10.1.3" was enabled. However if I disable the plugin, I am given the option to download the pdf. Once downloaded, I am able to open the pdf with Adobe Reader installed on the work computer.

Not sure if I can install a different plugin that would work, but at least the method of disabling the NPAPI plugin is a workaround to open pdf's from a website.

FYI: Type opera:plugins in the address bar of Opera to see your installed plugins, and to disable or enable them.

This is the future calling to say things will “just work” when you guys catch up with us. Opera 25 (available today “Opera Developer”) has a built-in experimental PDF viewer. Enable it by visiting opera://flags/#bundled-pdf-plugin

🙂
