Firefox for Android Support Forum

How can download any webpage as PDF for offline sharing in new updates. In earlier version I could do it from: tools-save as PDF. But now the save as PDF does not work.

Please solve the issue.

On this link if the options are selected, there are two embedded PDFs in two tabs on same page. The firefox Android app downloader randomly gives the option to download only one of the two. I wish to download both the PDFs. Is there a way to stop the firefox from giving download option, but see the embedded PDFs on the page itself. So that we can download it by clicking on the embedded PDFs.

Below are images on expected behaviour of chrome browser, but errorneous behaviour of firefox. Firefox shows option to download the file from first tab that is E-text. But when clicked to download ends up downloading file on the second tab Learn More.

How do I download embedded pdfs. Example - Sample embedded PDF link

Select any Paper and Module from dropdowns. Embedded PDF will be loaded. How to download from here?

Hi

Anyone know how I can change the default PDF viewing options in Firefox Android?

Currently PDFs open by default within Firefox. Even though it's generating a dialogue asking to open in an external app.

Please help

Hi I just noticed that the latest Firefox (version 111) for Android can't download web links pointing to pdf files any more. From the release notes, I find "You can now view PDF documents as you browse, no need to download them and open external applications anymore". This is horrible, in most time, I do want to download pdf files to my device, so I can view/edit them locally later. Plus, when the network is rate limited, the Firefox browser display nothing and seems to be frozen until the pdf file is fully received by Firefox browser which is horrible user experience. While in normal download, at least I can see the download progress and be aware if the download is interrupted or whatnot. Please revert back this "enhancement", or if you want to keep this enhancement because some other people want it, at least please provide an option on the Firefox for Android to disable it (which would be more fair to everyone). Before you fix it, I had to uninstall the latst Firefox and use the old version for the time being. thanks

For years, whenever I downloaded a pdf on my phone (Motorola droid), it opened in the Adobe pdf reader app. But around a month ago it stopped doing that. Instead it opens the pdf in its own url in Firefox. This is very frustrating as I cant do much of anything with the pdf there (especially search it). I've looked all over my phone for ways to change the settings back to the way they were before but I can't find anything. I've tried searching the support site but the only answers involve the browser on PC, not phone. Do you know how to make it so downloading a pdf automatically opens it in the Adobe app? Thanks.

Firefox on Android will not download PDF files from anywhere, not even on elifesciences.org, why?

Hello, I tried to save a page as pdf = "pdf not generated". Then I tried again, seemed to work but couldn't open it. Any idea ? NB it is paying newspaper, I am a subscriber.

With the new viewing pdf files in Firefox 111 I cannot download the file to downloads to save it. Can Firefox be modified to allow the option to either view the pdf file or download the file to downloads?

Hi, recently my firefox for android has stopped downloading pdfs from my universitys webpage. It now opens the document as a link in the browser and there is no easy way to download it (or maybe I am blind and just cant find the option, not sure at this point). The links look like:

Is there some "automatically download files" option or similar? In any case, thank you in advance!

In older version I could download any document and save it to pdf,but this version you can not do it,and it disturbs a lot,so please fix it,and another problem this version is too slow to open it lurgs a lot. Thanx.

1. 1- last week Firefox was blocking me from accessing certain sites that I always go to.

1. 2- I cannot access about:config. I've tried signed in and out as well as with different search engines and I just get a blank screen. Help?

1. 3- is it normal for FF to have permission to download files without notifying? I checked the permission list and seemed like there is alot of dangerous and malicious permission allowed as system permissions. Please help?

1. 4- when I log in and check devices, 2 new logins show up. One says my phone's model # and the second one says logged into Firefox browser or something like that. Is it normal to have duplicates like that when I only use my Android phone?

1. 5- I've tried and cannot find any way to login to my network or make any network changes? Please help?

I commented on play store and was told to send my question on here so they could be investigated more. Thank you for your help.
