Trying to open FRO PDF on Chromebook

New Here ,
Oct 13, 2025 Oct 13, 2025

So, I download the Adobe Reader extension for my Chromebook to open the FRO PDF. However, when I open the PDF it says I need Adobe Reader 8 or higher. I've check on the website to see if I have the correct program and it should open, but it says gives me the same issue. I also can't open the PDF on my Samsung phone either.

What am I doing wrong?

 

Error message: The document you are trying to load requires Adobe Reader 8 or higher. You may not have the Adobe Reader installed or your viewing environment may not be properly configured to use Adobe Reader. For information on how to install Adobe Reader and configure your viewing environment please see https://www.adobe.com/go/pdf_forms_configure.

 

**FRO PDF is from the Canadian government for child support to give context. I'm attempting to be enrolled with FRO and this may be an ongoing issue if I need to download more things from them in the future.

@julesofthenorth Many government PDFs are not able to be filled out on Chrome browsers.... Normally, we tell people to use Firefox or Edge to fill these FRO PDFs
