            Bug ID: 255155
           Summary: Correct PDF Plugin descriptions returned by
                    navigator.plugins[x].description
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Local Build
          Hardware: Unspecified
                OS: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebCore Misc.
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: bfulgham at webkit.org

In Bug 254189 we corrected a bug where the name of the WebKit Built-in PDF plugin was localized for the user's settings, which confused some anti-fraud software because the specification requires the name to be in plain English text.

While that issue was fixed, the specification also requires a consistent English label, "Portable Document Format" be returned by the 'description' property of the plugin. This is currently localized in Safari, leading to some anti-fraud software failing.
