2024-02-02	Xing Lang Yao	en	Default chrome pdf viewer is not that great. This helps a lot :)
2024-01-13	Julia Söderlund	en	I'm glad that something like this exists, but I can only use j and k to scroll and that hops an entire page at once. I can't read a pdf if it jumps an entire page at once, I'll just keep using pgup and pgdn.
2023-10-02	Guilherme David		i wish there was a way to disable pagination, as this doesn't allow me to copy and paste the whole text in the PDF. Also, it would be cool if j and k would work as the down and up keys, as opposed to changing pages (it would be better if h and l changed pages)
2023-09-23	Yabin CHENG		I used to convert all pdf to html, and run a local server to hold the html file to use vim-c for reading. What a life saver! Great tool.
2023-03-22	Conrad		Lifesaver.
2023-01-19	_ Nhat		Good thanks gdh1995 and many dev!
2022-11-25	Dave Houser		This extension just does not work, more importantly, there is no documentation so I don't know how to actually use it. The only thing I can get it to do is page up and page down with vim "j" and "k" nothing else works. If I should be using this a different way the creator needs to share how to set it up.
2022-10-23	Kelvin Nava		The keys do not work immediately on the pdf. You must click for them to work.
2022-05-23	Bin Liu		Great and indispensable companion for Vimium C! But could you add a "whitelist" in which sites this extension won't be activated? I have a few sites (mostly banking) that don't work with 3rd-party PDF viewer in Chrome.
2022-02-19	Zilong Li		好用，方便，虽然有时候有点卡
