PDF does not appear in HTML output using Chrome

Post by mperaro »

Receiving this message when trying to open PDF from Flare HTML Top Navigation output in Chrome.

Works fine using IE. I did not create the active forms in Adobe LiveCycle. Can the PDF output be set to be opened with any viewer?

Is there a setting in Chrome where the default browser is being set to Adobe Reader? If the links work in IE but not Chrome, then I'd look at Chrome's settings before I'd assume that Flare's at fault.

I could be wrong...

What about the default set in Windows for opening PDF's?

I Googled the message and read you can change Chromes settings but it did not work for these PDFs.

Admin has versions not done in Adobe LiveCycle and those are working fine. Opted to just go with these at this point.

Thanks everyone!
