No PDF Download is a Web Extension for Firefox, available here: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/no-pdf-download-improved/
While most PDF files can be viewed directly in the browser, some PDFs will trigger a "Save as"-dialog or will be downloaded automatically. This addon views all PDF files directly in the browser. You can still save the PDF by pressing Ctrl+S (or Cmd+S) after viewing them.
Some web servers are misconfigured and do not tell the browser that a file is a PDF. In this case the file will still be downloaded even when this addon is active.
This repository is https://github.com/jaens/no-pdf-download/, a fork of https://github.com/MorbZ/no-pdf-download.
