What to do when pdf does not download

Not sure why you say you are using Chrome, FyTg. Thanks for the help, i could solve the problem doing a different thing. By clicking show thumbnails, then print, then save as PDF i can now download it. You don't need to do all that. If you're using FireFox, just use the download button, that's what it's for! Apparently there are ways to lock down the download feature.

I've attached the example I am currently struggling with for your information. I am sorry the right click menu is in German, but trust me when I say that there is no download option there either.

Let me know if you have any other ideas. That doesn't look at all like that. And Chrome doesn't allow any other PDF viewer. From this we can conclude that this is not a PDF at all.

It's a web site designed to offer something in pages, and so it's easily mistaken for a PDF. It might have been a PDF back on its web site in China, but that isn't what is delivered to you. Hence, this discussion does not apply. I have no idea if you can save it, because I don't know what facilities you have for saving something on a secure web site that isn't a PDF.

Thank you for clarifying! I still don't believe that "just hit the download button" is a good answer to the question "[how can I] download [a] PDF from a website that has no such option to download that PDF". Obviously FyTg is not a "techie" user and getting into the intricacies of how that PDF file he is viewing is not being served to him a PDF is not gonna solve his problem.

I never use Chrome, but I just opened it and checked settings. To set Chrome to download pdf files rather than opening them in the Chrome viewer, open Settings, click on Privacy and security, then Site Settings. Find Permissions and click on Additional permissions at the bottom of that section. Scroll way down the page to Additional content settings where you'll find PDF documents as the fourth entry. That's cleverly hidden setting deep in the bowels of Chrome will solve your problem in that browser.

Firefox makes this easier. Mar 3, AM. Mar 3, AM in response to notcloudy In response to notcloudy. The other PDF options do work.

I can view the document as Single Page or Two Pages. So it appears that Safari thinks it's a PDF. If the document is in reference to your account - then it may be a formatted printout displayed on line that you can then save to PDF. You would have to contact one of the institutions to see if they upgraded and why have the options changed. Just an FYI -- I was downloading pdf's from a site - by right clicking and saving to a folder. Noticed it was not the same size as the site said the download was - so tried opening it on site - instead of opening it immediately popped up as download - so I downloaded it that way and the file was fine.
