Acrobat Reader Firefox plugin and permissions

There must be a simple answer to this, but I can't seem to figure it out... If I open a pdf file in my browser and try to "save a copy", I'm informed I must be super user to do this...

I can save the page through the browser's file menu ok, so this isn't really a problem, but it still bugs me...

Works fine for me, maybe you tried to save to a folder owned by root ?

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Nope, just a regular folder I save to all the time... And as I said, I can save a file fine with Firefox, it's just the plugin that won't let me save... I think it was the same back with the old version of acroread (5.0?), but I can't vouch for that...
