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.

It doesn't. It calls a page called "viewPDF", but that doesn't mean that what it's showing you is indeed a PDF file. It could be an interpretation of such a file, in a different format.

This has happened to me before. It looks like you are using the website's own pdf viewer. To download the pdf, right click on the viewer and click open frame in new tab. From there look at the URL and change allowPrinting=false to allowPrinting=true. This will bring a button in the top menu to download the pdf.

I know this reply very late, but it should help others in the future.
