As it happens, Firefox Quantum
can display PDFs in the browser.
Go to Options/General/Applications, scroll down the list to get to PDF, and change the default from
Always Ask to
Preview in Firefox. I have that set to Always Ask because I usually want to download the file for future reference.
(My recollection is that is
not a change in Firefox behavior as of Quantum, but was how it acted before. Memory may be failing me.)

I haven't run an external PDF reader in Firefox for years - when I want to use a fancier viewer I hit the download button in the built in viewer and then open it in PDF XChange, or in Word if i want to edit content beyond annotations, or convert to EPUB.
|
I have had very mixed results converting PDF to ePub, and prefer to get ePub in the first place, with PDF an "only if it's the only form available" option.

I've never liked Sumatra - except for its EPUB IFilter dll, which is a boon that they don't seem to want people to use.
|
I have full Adode Reader, but Sumatra does what I normally need, which is viewing. I almost never need to do things like fill in a form provided as a PDF.

I suspect my Office 2016/Windows 10 window size problems maybe related to the Office add-ins I use - but I couldn't live without tabbed documents, Epub Tools dialogue checker, data visualisation etc etc.

I'd disable them, see if I still had the issues, then add them back in one by one till I found the non-compliant culprit.
