I have this pdf page that has a lot of links embedded opened on Firefox (24.7). When I click the link on the pdf page, it jumps to the page on the very same tab.

Is there any way to open links on a pdf page in a new tab? What value in about:config should I modify to make it happen??

Can't you middle-click the links or use the right-click context menu to open the links in a new tab?

Hi,

You can't open link in new tab by middle click on PDF page... You must be talking about behavior on normal web page.

Thanks for your response anyways.
