Chrome reportShow.do issue

To successfully view PDF files within Civic Platform without receiving the Adobe Reader prompt, users must adjust the default behavior of Chrome to open PDFs directly instead of downloading them. Here's a step-by-step guide to make this adjustment:

  1. Open your Chrome browser.
  2. Click on the three vertical dots in the top-right corner (often referred to as the "hamburger menu").
  3. From the dropdown menu, navigate to Settings.
  4. Scroll down and find the Privacy and security section.
  5. Look for settings related to how Chrome handles PDF files.
  6. Toggle the option to open PDF files in Chrome directly instead of downloading them.

After making this change, users should be able to preview PDFs within Civic Platform without encountering the Adobe Reader requirement prompt.
