    You can Download internet download manager and add the extension to the browser. It will automatically give you the option to download the files in the page wheter its is downloadable or not

    if you are using safari just right click the doc and then you should have an option to open with preview.

    Mikel, please show a complete screen shot of your browser window, if you can. If you can't, what exact browser do you run, in what system?

    That's right, it does look like the FireFox PDF viewer. Not sure why you say you are using Chrome, FyTg. If it is FireFox, then just use the Download button in the PDF viewer toolbar.

    Looks as if it may be just off the edge, use >>

      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.

        There's no such thing as a PDF file that can be viewed but can't be downloaded. If you can see it, you've already downloaded it to your computer, if only as a temporary file. So you need to either find a way to save it (by right-clicking the link to it, as mentioned above, for example), or to find the path of the temporary file where it was saved to, and copy it from there.

        You should also be able to save it directly from within the application/plugin you're using to view it.

          That doesn’t look like the Chrome PDF viewer. So, That is not a PDF. What makes you say that it is?

          Right click on the link. Otherwise, what browser do you have? Do you see the PDF in the browser or in another app?

            i use google chrome as a browser and i do see the PDF in the browser, but the PDF itself does not has an option to download it. My concern is how i do to revert this and be able to download it even if there is no such option.
