When PDF 's are received the pages are empty of content. And I get message : "This PDF might not be displayed correctly" I followed Firefox HELP text and Uninstalled Flash, and installed Flash 10.3 (now only Abode PDF Plug in for firefox 9.5.4.268 is shown )? And the problem remains. If I 'copy/paste' the empty received PDFs into the Document library I find the content appears. Any suggestions to correct Firefox ?

Prior to March I had no problems, and have not consciously changed anything myself.

hello, if you're having problems with the new inbuilt pdf-viewer in firefox, you can also use the adobe pdf plugin, that you've used before: View PDF files using Firefox’s built-in viewer

Note FlashPlayer is unrelated to viewing PDFs.

I hope Philipp's answer solved your problem, if so please mark this as solved.
