    Really excited about the new PDF editing features!

      At this point I’d be happy for people to understand what pdfs are and stop sending them on the emails with signatures that say “to open the file download adobe acrobat reader”… Like I received the other day.

        -“Can you send me the vector artwork for this logo, not just a png?”

        -“Sure, here you go.”

        It’s the exact same png, just embedded in a pdf

          At least cheating like this is still an svg.

          <image width="20" height="20" xlink:href="data:image/png;base64,..."/>

      Yes! This one is the big feature for me. PDFs are always a pain to sign.

      On Linux I’ve been using Xournal which does the job pretty well, but I’m really looking forward to try it on Firefox!

      When I saw that my reaction was “Why is firefox including a pdf editor?”, curious if a lot of people will use it

        If you’re running Linux, you’d understand why so many people are excited about that one feature. I sure am very excited. PDF editors on Linux (as far as I know) suck on Linux.

          @penquin

          Actually, LibreOffice Draw is pretty great as a PDF-Editor.

    Oh damn this is a huge release. The last couple of updates have been pretty small on the user end but it looks like a ton of features finally were ready for release this time. They’re even releasing some of their fingerprint resistance features as enabled by default which is really cool.

      Probably in 120.
      There are a lot of changes in 120 in format support.
      120 supports hardware HEVC decoding.

          It’s passthrough to WMF.

          A really terrible decision for the open web.

      This is not a new button, right? Firefox view already existed.
      I like that they changed the icon of Firefox view. The firefox icon on it didn’t make any sense.
