I want to show pdf document embedded in html. Contoh Pengendalian Dokumen Iso 9001. Showing pdf document in safari. Safari just updated their browser which will now properly display pdf's in. The following features are new in Safari 1. Fetch is a flexible generic request- and- response API for the web, designed to replace.
I'm just visiting from the PC Talk forum because I am trying to help a good friend who is Mac user. This lady needs to view some web pages that have PDF documents inside them (as iframes). Unfortunately, although Safari has the ability to render PDF's it is displaying the PDF's in separate Adobe Reader windows. We discovered that compatibility with the Adobe Reader plugin was broken at Safari 5.1: Based on this, we successfully removed the Adobe plugin by deleting the file: /Library/Internet Plug-ins/AdobePDFViewer.plugin We restarted Safari (and the system) but Safari is still launching copies of Adobe Reader to render the PDF versus rendering them with it's own native PDF support.
I assume there is a configuration file/setting that is telling Safari to take documents served up with the application/pdf MIME type and open them in Adobe Reader. Grub2 Themes here. Can anyone help us understand where to find that setting and how to change it? I'm an experienced computer user (PC and UNIX) but don't have much knowledge of OS X. Thanks for the comments. Just to be clear. My friend had Adobe Reader with the browser plugin. We have removed the plugin but she needs Adobe Reader itself and so that's still installed.
She didn't loose anything by deleting the plugin since it just doesn't work with Safari 5.1. Generally, what happens with browsers (Windows, Mac, Linux et al) is that the system is configured with a table that defines how different media types are to be handled. When a web server sends a PDF document, it includes a MIME type header that have the value 'application/pdf'. The client looks this up in the table and sends the data stream to the correct application/plugin/widget for processing. In her case, this table is causing the PDF to be sent to Adobe Reader, which is not what we want. We want it to go to Safari which is able to display PDF's without any additional software. Here's an example of a page with a couple of embedded PDF's: A Mac with Safari and without Adobe Reader or any other software should render that page just fine.
I've actually tried it on another machine and it works great. Actually it also works great with Safari on my wife's iPhone. Unfortunately, someone or something has told my friends system to pass PDF's to Adobe Reader. We need to 'undo' that configuration change. But the user does still need Adobe Reader itself so removing that from the system is not an option. I know this is possible because on another system that has Adobe Reader installed, the PDF is shown nicely by Safari without opening a new Adobe Reader window.

Check ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins/ (the user-level plug-in folder, as opposed to the system-level one), and see if there are any copies there. If so, remove them too, then reopen Safari. Adobe says you can use their plug-in with Safari by forcing Safari to run in 32-bit mode.
(This might be a dated article, referring to older versions of the plug-in.) Here's an Apple Discussion thread with a lot of posts on removing the Adobe plug-in. Gaussian blur wrote: Why does she need Adobe Reader?
PDF is a native format to OS X, no additional software is required. What does it do that can't be done natively? Well, I just took her word for that.
However, I know that Adobe Reader has a lot of functionality (esp. Collaboration features) that are not available in the vast majority of third party PDF viewers. Having said that, she'd be quite happy with Safari's native PDF rendering for viewing embedded PDF's on line. She just wants Adobe Reader as well.
I think her issue may reside within com.apple.Safari.plist but I'm not sure my friend is going to be comfortable hacking away at that (even assuming she can find the right copy). I'm leaning toward having her install a completely different plugin which appears to have worked for quite a few Mac users smacking into similar problems.
