View PDF files in Safari with Reader 7
Authored by: windrag on Jan 20, '05 04:29:07PM
The Adobe plugin gives me the following error mesage:
Safari can't open the page "http://anygiven site.com/anygivenpdf.pdf". The error was: "Cannot load plug-in" (WebKitErrorDomain:203) Please choose Report Bug to Apple from the Safari menu, note the error number, and describe what you did before you saw this message.
Despite this warning, the pdf seems to load fine. Anyone else notice this?

View PDF files in Safari with Reader 7

I'm experiencing the same problem. I put a post on the Adobe Reader Forum outlining the behavior but have not received any hints as to the cause:

I noticed that Swift in this thread also appears to have this same problem.

I got the same error message as well. I disabled it by using a different PDF plug-in and turning off Adobe's PDF plug-in.

To turn off the Adobe PDF Internet plug-in for Safari, just launch Adobe Reader 7, go to its Preferences, click on the Internet tab, and un-tick the box that says, "Display PDF in Browser using".

Then download this plug-in (free for personal use) and follow its installation directions.

Hope that helps!
