There is a PDF on my website that Firefox 21.0 (beta) scrambles. IT's OK with other browsers and readers. My OS is Vista Business 32-bit SP2.

The URL of the PDF is http://training.psa.asn.au/moodle/file.php/14/PDFs/Administration_Section.pdf User firefox/firefox21 to log in.

I do see the notification bar that Firefox has may not display this document correctly with the built-in PDF Viewer.

  • "This PDF document might not be displayed correctly."

So it looks that this PDF file uses features that Firefox doesn't support in the current/latest version of the PDF Viewer (I have 0.8.1).

There are still a lot of open bug:
