how to open ASPX file in Adobe Acrobat Reader
Hi,
In Firefox browser, when I click the following link to open PDF document:
https://docu.DomainName.com/portal/document.aspx?JobNumber=XXX
It opens PDF document inside Firefox. But I like to be able to open this document in Adobe Acrobat Reader.
I know I can save the aspx document as PDF on the C drive, double-click that PDF document to launch Adobe Acrobat Reader, but that is two-step process.
So far, I have set associated PDF with Adobe Acrobat Reader and went into Firefox Tools/Add-ins/Plugins/ and changed Adobe Acrobat to "Always Active", but to no avail.
Can you help?
Thanks.

I'm referring to Applications in Firefox.
Either, type this in the address bar: about:preferences#applicat
Or, click on the menu button > options > applications.
Then, scroll down to "Portable Document Format" to set the behavior for that file type.
Sorry, I misstated that a bit. I should have said set that option to "Use Adobe" (Acrobat on my PC at work, not Reader):
