Great, yet more formats that I have to try and get around Google Docs with. Worst of all is PDF: Some of us have browsers and platforms that don't hate the format, and viewing PDFs natively in Safari/Chrome is a million times better than sending them through Google Docs for mangling.
Easily my most despised GMail "feature", that.
- Andrex 16y agoIf you're using Chrome, Gmail opens PDF's using Chrome's own viewer now.
- bonaldi 16y agoSo why is their platform the only one to get special treatment? Safari also has a (better, faster) native PDF viewer, why not hand off to it too? Don't like this precedent of funnelling the web via their servers and translators unless you're using their browser.
