Extension Metadata

About this extension
This extension offers opening PDF links with Foxit™ Reader. After installation, a new item is added to the right-click context menu for PDF links. In the options page, you can configure the extension to open PDF links with Foxit™ Reader as well.

Note: since Foxit™ Reader cannot open remote PDF links directly, the extension first downloads the PDF file to the default download directory of your browser and then calls the external PDF reader.

Note: you will need to install a small native client for this extension to be able to communicate with Foxit™ Reader. This native client is only available on Window, Linux and Mac operating systems.
