If we were to include Acrobat, or so, I'd be against it. However, using what your OS provides you with is a different story. In a way, it's like using native form widgets on the OS you are on. What annoyed me the most is not even that I had to open my online PDF files with Preview.app before, but that I had to delete all these files off my Desktop afterwards. When you look up bus schedules, restaurant menus and similar stuff online, you get a bunch of randomly names PDF files that you have to individually look at again and delete later. Robert: I agree.

It should really be included similar to how <a href="http://javaplugin.sourceforge.net/" rel="nofollow">java embedded plugin</a> is included. Would really improve the Firefox experience on a Mac IMHO. I’ve been meaning to blog about this all week.

It really should be core on the Mac.
