It might have been a PDF back on its web site in China, but that isn't what is delivered to you. Hence, this discussion does not apply. I have no idea if you can save it, because I don't know what facilities you have for saving something on a secure web site that isn't a PDF. Thank you for clarifying! I still don't believe that "just hit the download button" is a good answer to the question "[how can I] download [a] PDF from a website that has no such option to download that PDF".
Obviously FyTg is not a "techie" user and getting into the intricacies of how that PDF file he is viewing is not being served to him a PDF is not gonna solve his problem. I never use Chrome, but I just opened it and checked settings. To set Chrome to download pdf files rather than opening them in the Chrome viewer, open Settings, click on Privacy and security, then Site Settings.
Find Permissions and click on Additional permissions at the bottom of that section. Scroll way down the page to Additional content settings where you'll find PDF documents as the fourth entry. That's cleverly hidden setting deep in the bowels of Chrome will solve your problem in that browser. Firefox makes this easier. Go to General settings and scroll a little more than halfway down the page to Applications. Choose your desired outcome for that item in the right column.
I'm not sure of the diffence between the left column choices, so I'd set them both. Edge seems to be the easiest of all. Click on Cookies and site permissions. Scroll way down to PDF documents and click. Then toggle Always download PDF files on or off. Hi, I have the same problem. Can you plz help me to download this file? 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?
Welcome to the Community! Skip Take tour. Fourth, if you double-click on photos and PDFs, or if you choose Preview from the top menu for any other file, you can then click the download icon at the top. Fifth, when you try to download a few files at once, Google Drive will create a zip archive. There are instances where this archive could fail to download.
To fix this, close the Google Drive tab — it will give you a warning that files were not saved, select Leave and the download should start properly. To fix this, log out of all Google accounts.
Then only log back in with the account that should have access to the file you want to download and try again. The permission errors should now be resolved. So clearing them both could help. The problem is that the process for each browser is quite different and making sure you delete all cached files and cookies is not easy. When you want full control over the data your browsers retain, you should use an optimization tool like CleanMyMac X. CleanMyMac X is a powerful but intuitive app that lets you tweak any part of your Mac in just a few clicks.
You can scan your drive for old, unused files, get rid of mail attachments, free up RAM, reindex Spotlight, uninstall apps completely, and, of course, clean anything within your browser. After you clear all cache and cookies, make sure the cookies themselves remain enabled for Google Drive to work properly.
With ad blockers rising in popularity over the past few years, some web apps started to inadvertently break in unexpected places. If your WiFi connection is poor or unstable, or simply off, Google Drive might throw all kinds of errors related to file downloading. By default, Google Chrome opens a PDF file in the browser window instead of saving it to the downloads folder. To have PDF files open in the browser again, repeat these steps and select the Preview in Firefox option or Use other option to choose another program.
By default, Opera opens a PDF file in the browser window instead of saving it to the downloads folder. Recently Google made a changes to their policy so that now users can not download view only pdf file from Google Drive.
But now we bring you a simple JavaScript Code by using which, you can download any view only protected pdf file from Google Drive.
Open the view only pdf file in Google Drive in new window 2.
