Mac Users

MACs use Safari, which opens PDFs in the browser. That cannot work if security and other advanced functions are imbedded in the PDF. That requires a full version of PDF Reader or Adobe Acrobat installed.

Here is the APPLE support comment on reading PDFs with Safari. Adobe PDFViewer for Mac OS X will not run correctly on a system that doesn't meet the following requirements−

  • Safari browser

  • Mac OS X v10.3 and later

Adobe recommends Mac OS X version 10.3.4 and later and Safari version 1.2.3 (which comes with Mac OS X v10.3.5) and later.
