Adobe reader plugin

Hi everybody, I'm trying to use the adobe reader plugin on safari to preview file on website pages. Looking around it seems that when I install adobe reader dc the plugin would be auto installed. but I can't found it nowhere in safari preferences. Someone know how to solve?

Thx

ACROBAT READER I have a Mac Mini M2 with Ventura 13.2.1 and Safari 16.3. Just tried downloading Acrobat Reader from the Adobe site. Followed the instructions but it didn't work. The installer icon didn't even appear for me to click on. However the site said "Thank you for installing Acrobat Reader." What's the problem? JanetCato

You don't need an Adobe product to view PDF's in Safari. The software is built in.

The Adobe plugin stopped working in Safari 12 and is no longer compatible.
