September 4, 2010 2:43 am by Jal

Chrome 6 has been released with some great new features like form autofill, Extension Sync, support for WebM videos and (bet you didn’t know this) a built-in PDF viewer! Yes, it does mean a lot to serious professionals. But it’s not enabled by default. So here’s how you get it working:

In the address-bar, type ‘chrome://plugins/‘ and press ‘Enter’.

Here, simply click ‘Enable’ link in the Chrome PDF Viewer entry.

With the new default PDF viewer, it’s now irrelevant to have an Adobe Reader installed on your computer for viewing PDF files online.
