Chrome PDF Viewer Plug-in

In version 8, Google Chrome introduced a free PDF viewer, installed by default. While this plug-in lacks many features of the Adobe Acrobat Plug-in, it is much faster and lighter, and updates with the browser rather than an external utility.

It's a good idea for Goodle Chrome users. But it's only plug-in. I want to use full application, with all the functionality.

While I have no gripes about the majority of features, I cannot stand the black bar, and the buttons at the right of the screen that keep appearing at the top whenever my cursor dares venture towards those areas. Whenever they appear I lose the top lines of the text and I have to wait for them to disappear again or move the text down. Is there any way this "feature" can be disabled or just appear on the right, where they are less likely to get in the way?
