Bu not everyone will want to install another browser just to download PDF files. Doing so will make Chrome download PDF files instead of opening them. This site uses Akismet to reduce spam.

I have a 5 years old Chromebox not Chromebook and this issue goes on and off randomly and I forget if the settings should be from the device or from the browser settings. Today was the first time I saw your page but from several engine searches, your result was on top exactly the number one result.
It might seem trivial but there was once a time when good PDF readers were hard to come by. In Chrome, when you click on a link to a PDF file, it loads in the browser and you can read it. Open Chrome and click the more options button at the top right. From the menu, select Settings. Select where you want to save the file to, and it will be saved. This is a Chrome based setting and it will change how Chrome works.
You can't change that. Harshit J You just find out some document file over the net. And paste your link in address bar of internet browser after the below link. For example, gmail offers the ability to "view" or "download". Note: if you want to make sure that a file is virus-free before downloading it, there are a number of websites that do that.
The one that I use is. You just give it the URL, and it will scan the file for viruses. Caroline B Thanx for your tip! Oron Joffe It's not possible to answer this generically. Whether a document will open within the browser or download first depends on the browser and its configuration , the file format and to a certain extent the design of the web site.
However, note that even when just "previewing" a document, the entire document is downloaded to the local drive, to a temp folder at least for "ordinary documents such as Word, PDFs etc , so in terms of speed and bandwidth it makes little difference, and arguably, you'll be saving yourself some bandwidth by saving the files in the first place, since you'll not need to download them twice. Internet connection too slow? These simple router tweaks could make a world of difference on your home Wi-Fi network.
Caroline B. Hello everyone, thank you for your comments. Yes, you can't just read the content without downloading it. Oh sorry, there is no settings option like that. You can't preview something before downloading it - the very nature of previewing something means it will have already been downloaded. You just find out some document file over the net. Depends on the website.
