So the chrome_libpdf_copy.sh script no longer works. However, there is a Google Chrome extension named "Docs PDF/PowerPoint Viewer (by Google)" available that will work fine if you disable (or do not install) the libpdf.so file. You can download/install the extension from here (using chromium): https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/docs-pdfpowerpoint-viewer/nnbmlagghjjcbdhgmkedmbmedengocbn?hl=en-US Then go to "Settings => Extensions" in chromium and make sure the "PDF Viewer" is disabled and that "Docs PDF/PowerPoint Viewer (by Google)" is enabled.
