PDF Download 3.0 out now. Take the tour

This week in our continuing free PDF software adventures, we have a big update to our popular add-on for Web browsers. PDF Download 3.0 has a bunch of new features with the biggest one letting you view PDF files directly in your Web browser without resorting to a special PDF viewer. It works with Firefox, Internet Explorer and Flock, and is available for immediate download.

Take the tour

Feature highlights

  • View PDF Online. View the exact contents and layout of Web-based PDF files straight in your Web browser, without using a dedicated PDF viewer. (This is the major update to the product and a demo is included in the tour video.)
  • Enable/disable PDF Download. Turn PDF Download on/off faster from the Status bar in your browser.
  • Exclude sites. Use an exclusion list to automatically turn off PDF Download for individual sites.
  • Improved PDF handling. More reliably handle the PDF files you encounter online. Use the options to detect PDF files based on the filename or MIME type.
  • Better user experience. We’ve further improved the usability of PDF Download to make working with Web-based PDF files even more pain free.
