kpdf associate with FFox

[tom_d]

kpdf works just fine opening a local pdf, but isn't associated with FFox- to do so, where do I browse to for the kpdf executable?

Re: kpdf associate with FFox

I am having trouble getting kpdf to open automatically in Firefox. I was wondering if this solution is the one I am looking for. If so as a newbie what should I be doing with /usr/bin/kpdf executable, once this is executable will it (kpdf) automatically run once I have downloaded a pdf file.?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

open firefox then find a PDF file on the net (any one will do)
click this PDF file
when the action pane opens hit browse
goto usr/bin/kpdf
click this then ensure that always use this to open this file is ticked ...

Gnarly- Gezzer's instructions are exactly what I did, and that's all it took-

I have tried that and all I get is a PDF Download window which has as options:
Download it, Open Pdf, View as Html, Cancel.
If I try to use "Open Pdf, I get this msg. "Unexpected error: contact the author".
Not sure what to do with this.
