Preview PDFs in the browser with no PDF viewer in sight

Check out this really cool online service for previewing PDF (and other) documents. It’s called Docufarm, and is an add-on for Mozilla Firefox (you can also access the service manually from their website), so that when you click on a link to a PDF on the web it will open a new tab and preview all the pages in the document. When being previewed, click on a page and it zooms in. Click again and it zooms back out to thumbnail view.

I’m personally not a big fan of using browser plug-ins for viewing PDF files within the browser, so this is something i’ll be trying out some more. Another add-on for Firefox that solves a similar issue is PDF Download. Worth checking out.
