Steps to reproduce:

Because PDF is a standard format for documents, they are perhaps (I have no data to back this) the most commonly downloaded file type. They are found all over the web. Edge and Chrome have great PDF viewers. Firefox's lags way behind. Since Firefox is obviously the best browser, it should have a PDF viewer that is up-to-par with its competitors.

Expected results:

The look and feel of the viewer should be sleek and the viewer should be responsive and easy to user.

There have been some discussions around this (e.g. bug 1049218). However, give the current resources, I don't see any work being done on this in the near future.

I'm going to close this bug, as it's not really actionable. Thanks for the feedback though.

Thanks, Brendan. I hope that in the future there will be more resources and more contributors available to incorporate this. I'll try to contribute where I can.
