Hello everyone.
When I look for a PDF document on my phone in the browser and click on the link it asks me where to download it. But I would like to view it in the browser. Anyone know how to help me?
Thanks!

My phone is Samsung Galaxy A53 5G

Hello Luxio, 

 

I hope you are doing well. 

 

The question that you have is something related to the browser compatibility and not with Acrobat Reader Mobile.

 

If you face any issues opening any PDF file with Acrobat Reader Mobile, you may reply, and we will be happy to help you.

 

Thanks,

Souvik.

The thing is that no browser allows me to do this. So there are 2 hypotheses: either it is a problem concerning the mobile phone or it is a problem concerning Acrobat.

What do you think?

So basically, you are using google search to view pdf, which cannot open PDF directly. You may want to try using a web browser. 

 

I tried the same on my end, and it prompted to download for me too. But if I did the same using a web browser rather than google search, I opened up directly.


I have Chrome as a browser but going to Chrome doesn't make me see it anyway.
