I need a PDF viewer which UI can be accessed via localhost so I can open it in Firefox.

I need a more powerful PDF viewer with easier jumping to sections, comments, and highlighting.

You want a PDF viewer that's accessible from Firefox, but you don't want to use the built in Firefox PDF viewer?

If you really need it accessible from the browser, you're probably looking at spinning up a Selkies docker container. That'll get you an entire desktop environment in a web browser.
