Hiya everybody,
as you may have heard, the Chrome and Firefox dev teams plan to discontinue supporting the (NP)API which has traditionally been used to load an Adobe Reader document into a browser window instead of spawning an external Reader instance.
Although there are some alternatives on the market, Adobe Reader still remains the best tool for certain uses such as filling forms, 2D barcodes and PDF/A files so some folks still need Reader to work from within their browsers.
What are Adobe's plans concerning this matter? Will they just drop their native browser support or will there be some kind of replacement for the NPAPI plugin?
Regards.
Chris
