That's really weird, and I'm sorry that happened. I'm on Firefox Developer Edition on macOS, and it displays inline for me, but that could be my settings.
I'll take a look at using an embed tonight. Thanks for the feedback!
- KronisLV 4y ago> I'm on Firefox Developer Edition on macOS, and it displays inline for me, but that could be my settings. I looked into it and it indeed is the settings! To reproduce the behavior, you'd go to General > Applications, then find PDF and if it's set to "Open in Firefox" then it will render inline, whereas if it's set to any of the other options, then it won't: - Open in Firefox: will show the PDF inline, which is probably your setting - Always ask: opening the webpage will result in a prompt for what to do with the PDF - Save file: will always download it - Use OS default application: will download it and then open it This doesn't seem to be the case with the alternative approach, which just renders it inline always (when the browser in question supports the functionality), though this is definitely a bit of interesting behavior otherwise!
- robertwpearce 4y agoI'm doing it wrong! Thanks for looking into this. I will 100% fix this.
- dym_sh 4y agowell, embedded pdf on iOS looks like a single image of the first page with no ability to scroll or interact in any way, not even select text. so a text-link outstide of noembed would be a nice alternative anyways, i bet it will be better for screenreaders too
- robertwpearce 4y agoSince this was originally posted, the inline PDF is hidden an replaced with a link on smaller screen sizes.
- robertwpearce 4y agoThe fix for this is going out right now, and I gave you and your original comment credit in the article. You rock!
