Issue with Verify_Text_In_Pdf

Having an issue with Verify_Text_In_Pdf that used to work previously.

The following error is dispalyed on Proof 'Cannot locate window or frame. Reason: Window containing text 'showNavLog' not found'.

I can clearly see that 'showNavLog' is the title of the window/tab in the source code (see below)

Environment:

Proof Version:  8.13.2.426

Chrome Version:  83.0.4103.97

Hi Dominic,

It seems Chrome did some changes and PDF meta info is not injected to DOM anymore.

Could you run this test on Firefox and see if it's working?

Regards,

I was able to confirm that it does indeed work fine in Firefox.  Unfortunately all/most of our testing is on Chrome.

For the time being there is not much that can be done, except writing a snippet to read the PDF custom way. Can it be solution for you?

Is this a bug and something Chrome would/should fix or is this going to be how Chrome handles PDF for the foreseeable future?

If this is a permanent Chrome change then I guess a snippet will be fine but if this is just a temporary thing, then I think we can wait for it to be resolved by Google.

I don't want to have to update tons of places to use the snippet instead of Verify_Text_In_PDF and then have to switch them all back later.
