I am trying to get my electronic medical records to work with android, even though they were designed for iPad. I can get them to work until I get a message that says "pdf browser plugin not found". Can someone please help a non-techy with this? I have tried at least 7 browsers without luck. Thanks in advance!

You can try going into Firefox and going into the menu, then going into tools, then going into add-ons, then tapping the A button on the Your-Add Ons bar, then searching for open-pdf, then installing Open-pdf. After that you should be able to read PDFs in the browser

I did that, but it had the same popup saying the same thing. Thanks for trying. Any other ideas?
