Need help: Portfolio does not open in my browsers

I view a portfolio that opens in IE (v.10.0) but the same portfolio does not open in Chrome (v.42.0) or Firefox (v.37.0.1)-- instead only the Cover Sheet appears. I have Adobe Reader 11.0 and Acrobat XI Pro installed. Are there any special browser settings that I need to set? Thank you.

Hi Steve, Thank you for your reply. I have Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Technical Communication Suite 5 installed. But based on your reply, I found these instructions for enabling the Adobe Acrobat or Reader PDF viewer for Firefox and Chrome. Here is the link: https://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/pdf-browser-plugin-configuration.html

The instructions work, so I am marking this question as resolved.

Hi, any ideas?

You are using Google Chrome's default PDF plug-in or Mozilla Firefox's default PDF plug-in and not Adobe Acrobat or Adobe Reader's PDF viewer plug-in.  Neither Google Chrome's plug-in nor Mozilla Firefox's PDF plug-in supports PDF Portfolios or XFA based PDF files.
