    Pdf file displayed incompletely by Edge


    When opening this link to a pdf-file in Edge, figure 1 is incomplete. When opening the same link in Chrome, it is complete.
    - Could someone verify on another computer that the figure is incomplete in Edge?
    - Is it a bug of Edge, or is the pdf-file corrupt?
    I am surprised because many years ago the pdf-format guaranteed that a printed document was identical to the original.

    Windows 10 Edge PDF Viewer

    When opening a PDF file using Windows 10 Edge, not all content within the PDF file is being displayed.

    If I open same file using Adobe Reader, the entire content of the PDF is shown.

    Do I assume there is bug in Windows 10 Edge that cause this issue?

    How do I disable Edge's built-in PDF viewer?

    I'm browsing in Edge (on Windows 10 Pro, desktop) and click on a link to a PDF file. Currently, Edge displays the PDF within the browser, using a built-in viewer.

    I want to be able to configure Edge to always open the PDF in the default application for PDFs (which is currently Adobe Reader DC on my PC) - i.e. in an external application, not using Edge's built-in PDF viewer.

    How do I configure Edge to do this? (I can't see a way in settings or advanced settings.)

    I know there's a workaround to right-click on the link, save the file, go to File Explorer, find the file and then open the file. But that's tedious.

    Thanks,

    P

    I can verify that what you see is normal behaviour for Edge which seems to use its own pdf viewer. Internet Explorer does a correct job of showing the image using the Adobe Reader add-on.

    This is not a problem with the pdf file - it is something that you should report to Microsoft so that they can improve their Edge browser.
