Can you explain how/why pdf can be rendered as an image in Safari?

Hi TwDevWizards

I'm curious about the fact that this syntax [img[foo.pdf]] does render
an image in Safari - but not in Google Chrome, FireFox or IE... - is
it sth webkit-specific?

We discussed it in the TW-group - but need an expert to explain how
and why..

Is it possible to make it work in the other browsers as well?

Hi,

I have also observed that "[img[foo.svg]]" renders its image in Safari
(4.0.4), but not in Firefox (3.5.6) or Camino (2.0.1) on my computer
(MacOSX 10.5.8).
