Download view only PDF file from Google drive Recently Google made a changes to their policy so that now users can not download view only pdf file from Google Drive. Thanks for reading our article. Bhardwaj Clinic, Panipat, Haryana info[at]bwcreative[dot]in. I am sorry the right click menu is in German, but trust me when I say that there is no download option there either. Let me know if you have any other ideas.
That doesn't look at all like that. And Chrome doesn't allow any other PDF viewer. From this we can conclude that this is not a PDF at all. It's a web site designed to offer something in pages, and so it's easily mistaken for a PDF.
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. For example, in Adobe Reader, a computer diskette icon is available in the toolbar located near the top of the program window. As shown in the image, clicking this icon saves the file. How do I save an online PDF file to my computer? Note The first thing you'll need to do is ensure you have a PDF file reader program installed on your computer.
Note : please don't set the "Open Password", as if you set the open password, others will have to enter the password to open the document, and it will be unreadable. The final step is to save the file to a chosen location, which can be the local drive or a cloud storage account.
After the above steps, the PDF file will be read-only. If others want to edit the file, they will need to click "Enable Editing" and then enter the set Permission password and click "OK" when attempting to edit the file.
If you don't want to apply such granular restrictions but merely want a version of your PDF file where the content can't be changed, all you need to do is convert it into an image file. You can do that in PDFelement as well. Here are the steps.
