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.

If it's really a PDF file that's not really possible. The file has to be saved locally for it to be viewed. If it's a PDF file that was converted to another format and then displayed, then it's possible.

If you want to download the pdf but it doesn't have the button to do so (is probably embedded into the website or some .js) just hover anywhere on the pdf and press 'CTRL + S'. This should download the pdf file to your computer. Hope this helps even if this is an older post.

It doesn't do that. To download a PDF file on a web site, you use your web browser. PDF viewers generally have a download button. If you don't see one, please post a screen shot showing the PDF, and the whole window it is in (unless it has personal info in this file)

The original post's issue has been resolved but, it seems to many of us it doesn't work, for that:

1. press Ctrl+P and choose option to download.

 

If it doesn't work then,

 

2. press Ctrl+I

if in Firefox, a popup will showup called Page info, go to media and find the file/image and press Save As and download the file and you're done.

 

if in Chrome , Ctrl+I won't do anything, right click anywhere but not on the pdf, press Inspect a screen will open up at the right side, hover over the source code,

 

Capture0.PNG

 

find the source code of the pdf, I've darkened the source code of the pdf I want but it won't be darkened  for you, so find it, it will look like a link, confirm, if there is adobe or other pdf viewer name in it, click on the link, the link will get highlited, press Ctrl+C and open a new tab, and paste it, the pdf will open in adobe or other pdf viewer, then hit download or press Ctrl+P to download.
