Hi there! We don't support PDFs at the moment. Some people have experimented a little with pdf.js but that's not integrated yet.
What is the state of SerenityOS's LibPDF? Has it been considered to integrate this into Ladybird in the future?
We removed LibPDF from the ladybird repository. Nico and Lucas continue to improve it in the SerenityOS project. When we get back to PDF support, it would only be one of several possible considerations.
