Mozilla's HTML5 PDF Viewer with Reader-mode add-on.
doqment is a modified version of the PDF.js viewer used by Firefox, with a Reader Mode add-on that allows you to view PDFs in different colour themes. It has both Light & Dark themes to make long-time reading more comfortable on your eyes.
It also adds some other handy features like Smart zooming text and hiding the toolbar to assist reading, especially on smaller screens.
Happy PDF Reading!

Notes:
• To open PDFs in Chrome without downloading them, you may need to check if it is enabled first (go to Settings => Privacy and security => Site Settings => Additional content settings => PDF documents; or open `chrome://settings/content/pdfDocuments`). If you set it to Download, you can still use doqment via the right-click menu.
• Changing the colours of PDFs needs some processing and that may slightly slow down the rendering in Reader Mode. Feel free to report if it is annoyingly slow for a PDF you are trying to read.
• Please do not report your issues with this extension to the Firefox viewer team. This is a separate extension, so post your issues/feedbacks directly at the Support tab, by mail or over at the GitHub page.
This software is fully open-source and does not collect any user data.

- (2023-11-04) Firas Kallel: Exceptional extension. My favorite feature is the ability to change the PDF's color. I really recommend it :)
- (2023-06-09) Har Xfinity: Not gonna lie, I spent a year trying to search for an extension with this capability. There are several out there that invert display color which are adequate but this is the only one which gives you a crisp dark mode pdf web client and more. Clearly, my thoughts are being broadcasted because this fulfilled my wishes
