I could be wrong, but I believe that the ability to view PDF and RTF in the browser are built into Webkit. Is this possible to enable for Omniweb?

Not sure about rtf--but yes WebKit does now support PDF--however our context menu support overrode the builtin context menu so there were no options for opening it up in Preview, etc. so we disabled it by default.

You can re-enable support using defaults:
defaults write com.omnigroup.OmniWeb5 WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool false

Not a universal binary, sadly.

So non universal binary plugins doesn't work via Rosetta? I am asking since even lower than 100 mhz portable devices can display pdf fine.

I would check if it can work.

Plug-ins will only work via Rosetta if the browser is also running the PPC code in its universal binary in Rosetta as well, rather than as an Intel app.
