Bugzilla

Hi, Yes, I think so. It is probably occurring because Firefox launches the extension's native messaging helper application and that uses Apple Events to talk to Adobe Acrobat and the use of Apple Events there is triggering the dialog. With the fix for bug 1576733 (which is in progress), I suspect this dialog will go away. You can assign this bug to me for now.

Edit: in a way, the dialog is accurate or at least useful to the user because Firefox is invoking the web extension's helper application which is controlling Acrobat, but the helper is Adobe's code so I think it would be better to not have the dialog attribute Adobe Acrobat behavior to Firefox.

Edit 2: I realize now that the bug was filed because the dialog is not shown the first time the user runs "Convert to PDF", but it is shown on subsequent times. This needs more investigation and may still be addressed by 1576733.
