However I could be wrong as there are people who would no doubt argue Firefox should not support watermarks, as that restricts free access to material on the Web. I surmise that it is not a deliberate intention to remove the watermarks but a limitation in the PDF reader's ability to support such a feature. I must immediately say I do not know the first thing about the technical aspects of the Firefx PDF reader. Post back here to keep us informed of your progress, including links to the conversations.Ensuring you make the point it is a global Firefox issue with a Firefox default feature and not a site specific problem. Initially Ask for advice in where to discuss this mater if not their forum.This one would seem approprite to ask about the technical aspects #dev-dpfĪnd possibly this one to ask about the watermarks being defeated #privacy.I appreciate the issue & problems it causes you, however this is not the best place to ask.Įxplain the issue very briefly in a suitable mailing list/forum Read this answer in context 👍 0 All Replies (6) That would have been possible with provision of PDF samples, but is much easier this way.Ī warning to everyone who sells download content as PDF files and offers free watermarked samples of any of it - because PDF readers can not be trusted to work properly, provide those samples as GIF images, never as PDF files. One advantage, at least in this case, is that WordPress automatically displays thumbnails of the samples.
I have removed all those watermarked PDF samples and replaced them with low resolution GIF images of the same files. Given that the Mozilla reader has had this serious failing for years, and the related assumption that Mozilla people (not you who have replied here) seem to have inadequate or even no interest in rectifying it, it's best regarded as a lost cause. Since the Mozilla PDF reader has the unacceptable failing of inability (or refusal?) to display an element of content of PDF files then the obvious suspicion is that others may have the same fault.
