Title: Chromium 8: pdf functionality in linux?
Post by: jur on December 12, 2010, 06:10:19 AM

Chromium 8 has a built-in pdf viewer; this works very nicely in Windows. In tcl, I don't see this buit-in function working.

Is tcl's version of Chromium compiled with the pdf disabled/excluded?

internal pdf plugin uses foxit sdk, it is closed source and not available for chromium unfortunately

i didn't try but you can pull out the plugin from official chrome packages, the plugin is called libpdf.so
