PDF preview doesn't work when opening link in new tab

I have firefox set to preview pdf files, and it works fine if I simply click a PDF link. However, if I right-click and open in a new tab, or enter the link directly in the address bar, the standard download dialog pops up, with no option to Preview. Is there a way around this?

I have no such issue on my system, which is also running Firefox 61 on Windows 10. Is this issue only with specific websites or all websites in general?
