If so, when the recipient opens the mail in the web-browser, the recipient's default PDF viewer will open and the link will be passed as an image from the email to their system's default PDF viewer. How it works (in Chrome) If you want to force PDFs to open in Chrome rather than download them in the background then follow these instructions. Step 1. You have to find the PDF file the user sent, in some cases that will be easy, the rest may require searching for it on Google's search. You need to save the PDF file in the appropriate format in your computer so that it will be recognized by Chrome. Step 2. Open Chrome and go the URL the user has shown in the email. The URL looks similar to this: Step 3. Once you are viewing that link it should look something like this: Step 4. Click the PDF links you see below the button. If you haven't already done that, click the Add to a Book button to see the book's bookmarks. You can then add additional PDF links if you like. This will cause Chrome to open the PDF file in the standard PDF viewer (which you can switch back and forth between). If you click the Save button, Google Chrome will save the PDF file locally. The user then will have the PDF, in the appropriate format, in your Downloads folder. If the user never opens the PDF then the information is deleted and the PDF file is deleted from their computer. Using the same principle, you can force other websites to automatically open PDF files in their standard PDF viewer, or at least get other users and administrators to open PDF files on your behalf. Step 1. Create a bookmark to the site you want to automatically open PDF files for you. Step 2. Click the bookmark and choose To add Bookmarks. Step 3. Click the drop-down. Make sure “Save bookmarks in my bookmarks bar” is checked. Once checked, Google Chrome will automatically save all of your bookmarks to your bookmarks bar.
