Hi,

I have a small prblem I'd like to see solved. I use ephiphany as my web 
browser, but when I try to see a pdf file in it it doesn't do enything. It 
just appears a blank screen.

Anyone knows why and what should I do?

You have two ways of reading PDF-files inside your browser.

* With Acrobat Reader:

Install mozilla-acroread from
    http://dag.wieers.com/packages/acroread/

* With GNOME Ghostview:

Install mozilla-bonobo (and ggv) from
    http://dag.wieers.com/packages/mozilla-bonobo/

Remember that if you have both installed, the first one to appear in 
'about:plugins' is used. Currently there's no way to prioritize or disable 
a plugin unless you remove the package/plugin from your filesystem.

Let me know if this helps !

Kind regards,

Well, there is at least one more that works with Mozilla:
   * With xpdf

Install mozplugger-1.3.2-1.i386.rpm from
        your Fedora CD.
