User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.8; rv:19.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/19.0 Build ID: 20130307023931 Steps to reproduce: I found what fixes pdf opening problem with pdf.js on Firefox for Mac. I removed any accentuated characters in the pdf file properties (using acrobat pro) and now the pdf viewer is fine. Prior to this, pdf viewer didn't show the pdf content, but pdf could be downloaded by clicking on the download icon. Expected results: PDF viewer should be able to read UTF-8 encoded file properties.
