So, for fast opening of simple pdfs -- Firefox is great. Otherwise, use a dedicated PDF viewer/editor.
Now I am intrigued how Pale Moon would handle graphics heavy magazine PDFs.
Do you by chance have some URLs of public available examples of such PDFs for me to test how Pale Moon fares with such PDFs? :)
Cheers!

My Firefox struggled to fully render this pdf: https://www.upload.ee/files/15946209/3D ... 3.pdf.html

73,2MB pdf. Quite large for a pdf, currently downloading. Thanks for the link.

Added in 5 minutes 30 seconds:
First checking it via my default XFCE epdfview V0.2.0 …

Page 2 and page 147 appear to be empty. Is that correct?
Page 4 is almost empty, but has a hardly visible logo on its bottom.

Are these three pages rendered correct by epdfview?
If epdfview also is unable to render 3D_Make___Print_-_18th_Edition__2023.pdf correct then comparing it with Pale Moon's pdf rendering would make no sense.

All other pages aside from page 2 and page 147 seem to render okay in epdfview.
Cheers!
Yours Rava
