I have to fullfill and submit a form online but when i try to view the file it says

 

"To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade
to the latest version of Adobe Reader from www.adobe.com/products/acrobat/readstep2.html
For further support, go to www.adobe.com/support/products/acrreader.html"

 

But when i save them and open via acrobat reader it opens perfectly. But i have to submit the form online. How can i view it using chrome browser?

You can save the file to your local computer and then open it in Adobe Reader for best results.

That's exactly the same as opening it in a browser. Either way, it's a local copy of the file, not an "online" version, which is not possible when it comes to PDF files.

You cannot view this form in Chrome. Nor Edge nor Firefox. Try Internet Explorer.
