I just switched from Safari to Firefox as my default Web browser, but the one thing that I miss is the ability to view PDFs right within the browser itself. Can I make this happen within Firefox?

Google has covered quite a lot of turf during the march toward its goal of making every last bit of the world's information searchable. But considering all the ground that has yet to be covered—especially in the realms of offline data and paper documents—we weren't surprised when Google began dabbling with OCR technologies over the last couple of years. Now, the search giant has officially launched its next attempt to handle some of this previously unsearchable content.

GoogleScanned PDFs are a kind of darknet on a web — at best search engines see an image inside a PDF, but can’t parse out the actual text.
