Hello,

Many times during the day, I need to download some pdf files. But I want to save them on my computer AND at the same time open them ! Firefox lets me just download (OR open) them. Then I need to manually go to the download bar to open them. In summary, I have to make several clicks for nothing each time ! This is making me mad ;(

Thanks in advance ;) David ps: in order to locate where to implement this suggestion please see the second image of this webpage https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/change-firefox-behavior-when-open-file

If you open the PDF file in an external application (e.g. Adobe Reader) or use the built-in PDF Viewer then you should be able to save a copy of this file in that application.
