    There are already two similar extensions: http://www.chromeextensions.org/social-communications/gdocs-google-docs-link-replacer/ and http://www.chromeextensions.org/other/googledocspdfviewer/ (of which the latter seems to me the most complete version (yes, I’m its author)). So it’ll be nice if you explained in what ways your one is better, if it is.

    Your extension does not automatically convert links like this one: http://citeseerx.ist.psu.edu/viewdoc/download?doi=10.1.1.100.6671&rep=rep1&type=pdf and does not even give a way to force it to open in the Viewer.
