I know it is a poor (not logical design), but here is how it works. |
| 14 |
|
| 15 |
Navigate to any PDF file with firefox and click on the file. |
| 16 |
You will see window pop-up as firefox doesn't know what to do with it. |
| 17 |
Beside "Open with" is empty selection, click on that empty icon, you |
| 18 |
will see: "other" --> click on it. |
| 19 |
Another window will pop-up, under File Name: type: /usr/kde/3.4/bin/kpdf |
| 20 |
or complete path to whatever application you want to use --> click OPEN |
| 21 |
I will return you to previous window; select "Do this automatically..." |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
It will enter this setting in Download section in Setting Preferences. |
