Default pdf viewer in Safari 2.0.1 - dixonfdm

You can still select a default pdf viewer. Click on a pdf document icon (but don't double click to open it). Choose "Get Information" and then choose "Open With" (whichever viewer you want).

In Adobe Reader, go to the Preferences, click on Internet, and uncheck "Display in browser using: ..." That will stop Adobe's plugin from opening the file. However, PDFs will still be loaded into your Safari window using Safari's built-in plugin. If you want to stop this from happening, quit Safari, go to the Terminal and type

defaults write com.apple.Safari WebKitOmitPDFSupport -bool YES

After you relaunch Safari, PDFs will be downloaded to your download folder, where you can open them as you see fit.
