The built-in PDF viewing ability of Google Chrome 8 allows you to view PDF files either on the web or on your Computer without having to install a separate PDF reader. Google Chrome browser already had a built-in plugin for reading PDF documents which was not enabled by default. But the Chrome 8 now has that built-in PDF reader plugin turned ON by default.
Simply drag a PDF file onto Chrome to view it. You can also Zoom In/Out and Fit Width/Height the document.
