It's possible?
Is there a way to install the plugin?
I've been searching trying to find a solution for this, but found nothing.
Edit: Without installing anything from Adobe.
Grab the "pdf.dll" from the latest Google Chrome version. (Download here from version 25.0.1364.172)
Put it in Chromium's install directory ("C:\Program Files\Chromium\Application" or "%appdata%/Chromium/Application/VersionNumberHere/")
Restart any running instance of Chromium.
Type "chrome://plugins" in Chromium, make sure the plugin is enabled and any other PDF plugin is disabled.
And test your browser in: http://www.google.com.br/search?q=pdf+test
Install Adobe Reader on the computer. The PDF will then display in Chrome.

I am trying to build my own version of Firefox with slight UI changes and by adding some addons(extensions) to the build.
I have downloaded the source code from repo. Where would I start to achieve this?
Which all codes hold the UI structuring? Where do I put my addon xpi files?
PS: I tried to read the Mozilla documentation. Its either kinda outdated or I am not really getting it? A detailed insight would be much appreciated.
Addons
To do this, simply place the extensions in the distribution/extensions
directory in the application's distribution directory.
Here are the extension

I get this error when I try to inline install my addon: This add-on could not be installed because it does not match the Add-on Firefox expected
I'm using this tutorial: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Installing_Extensions_and_Themes_From_Web_Pages
My extension is verified on AMO. This addon is a pure XML. I don't have any XPI file. And I'm pointing to this XML file in my inline install. The hash is OK (it's the same one that I got from the Firefox Developers page)
Can somebody help?
I'm trying to get my extension (using Firefox Addon SDK 1.17) to work on SeaMonkey (2.30). After modifying install.rdf to allow my extension to be installed, I can see SeaMonkey accepted the extension. However -- my extension's button isn't visible anywhere in the UI. I am using sdk/ui/button/toggle. I have also tried require("sdk/ui").ActionButton but that doesn't seem to do anything either.
What do I need to do to make sure my extension can render a button into SeaMonkey's toolbar?
Looks like the answer is that SeaMonkey does not officially support the Addon SDK yet. Support is planned for SeaMonkey 2.33
There are a couple of options:
patch the sdk to allow support on seamonkey.
copy the button code from the sdk into your add-on, mark it as supporting seamonkey, and use that, possibly uploading the code to npm as a third party module.
I'm new to Firefox extension development. I have gone through some basic tutorial. When I do as shown in the tutorial by placing the folder into profile folder/extensions folder, or in profile folder it made no change in the extension installation after restart.
Then, I have gone through this tutorial as well. I tried using the pointer object also. This also not working for me.
Firefox version I'm using is 14.0.1,
And When I try to install ESPN Crickinfo (you could be able find extension on-line) extension, It also not working. I couldn't open the options page of this extension even.
Any suggestions on this problem???

I'm developing a firefox extension which has been working without any problems in firefox version 12.*.
Today I updated FF to version 13.0.1 and changed the install.rdf file accordingly:
<em:targetApplication>
<RDF:Description>
<em:id>{ec8030f7-c20a-464f-9b0e-13a3a9e97384}</em:id>
<em:minVersion>1.0</em:minVersion>
<em:maxVersion>13.0.*</em:maxVersion>
</RDF:Description>
</em:targetApplication>
But since then the extension won't be installed. The message "-Extension name- could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 13.0.1" is displayed.
I used Netbeans' foxbeans plug-in to create the first dummy version of my extension (I used to be -and still am- a beginner in Firefox extension development), so the install.rdf and install.js files are automatically generated. Feel free to ask for more code if you think it could help.
Is there anyone else who has the same problem? Any possible explanations?
SOLVED:
It seems like this is a rather weird Firefox bug. I discovered that the problem was caused by an ampersand I had placed on the extension's description:
<em:description>Demokritos Labeling & Filtering Client's Firefox Extension</em:description>
If I change the above to:
<em:description>Demokritos Labeling and Filtering Client's Firefox Extension</em:description>
the extension gets installed normally.
It's a minor but rather odd bug and I should probably report it.
Do you have an updateURL in your extension?
There is an open bug that if your updateURL is incorrect, you'll get a version error:
