i only use firefox as default pdf viewer (because its simply and perfect font rendering).

One litle special thing i like that firefox have 'j' and 'k' shotcut key to move up and down document some line (as vim which i was familiar).

But in buildin pdf viewer them become 'next page' and 'previous page', that my hand compelled to leave the keyboard and use the mouse's scroll button.

Is there a way help me reconfig these shotcut?

Sorry about my poorrr english.

thanks you Safwan, from document about keyboard shotcut I found for my own an approach. Templerality I use `space` key stroke which scroll down an screen not a page.

Add on that you show me is very helpfull, i changed some default combo to another that easier to do.

Of course my desire still that use `j` and `k` to scroll line-by-line, 'cause they're in thought of my fingers :D. Hope some day it can be come real.
