Download from where? Can you post a screenshot?

From a webpage that opens pdf in an embedded pdf viewer and doesn't allows user to download.

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 works form me CTRL +S

OMG, THANK YOU GOOD LORD

All of those comments above were completly useless, but. CTRS+S over viewed PDF worked like charm.

The PDF was somehow embedded just for viewing by the website author, with intention to view only and limit accses after some time.

BTW on MacOS its 'COMMAND+S'

How do i download a pdf file using my newly installed adobe software?

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,

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.

Hi, 

I am a teacher working on my dissertation and had the same problem. I read through most posts and problem-solved what the one mentioned about saving in Chrome to somewhere else...I figured that in Chrome, next to your sign-in image, there is an arrow with a basket. If you click on that (even if it already sends one to Adobe - which you could do the print PDF as a fix around), you can click on the download button (arrow down into basket) and then click on the last PDF you tried to open or view online. Drag it to your desktop, and you will now have your PDF.  I hope this helps, and thank you all for discussing this topic for me as well.
