In Chrome PDF Viewer Pressing Download will cause it to want to save as html not pdf!

Reported by labobol...@gmail.com, May 10 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/50.0.2661.94 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. View pdf in chrome from any website (not local, from the hard drive!).
2. Press 'Download' button. Displays save as *.htm
3. 

What is the expected behavior?
To download the pdf file as pdf, no conversion.

What went wrong?
pdf is saved as html.

Did this work before? Yes Sorry, I'm unsure. Assumed this would get fixed and didn't note the version in memory.

Chrome version: 50.0.2661.94  Channel: stable
OS Version: 6.1 (Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2)
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 21.0 r0
 
Can you provide the URL of a PDF that reproduces this problem? I'm not able to reproduce it with, for example, https://www.fiddlerbook.com/book/DWF2-TOCAndSample.pdf

If you examine the resulting downloaded file in Notepad, what does it contain?

That pdf works as it should for me too.

> If you examine the resulting downloaded file in Notepad, what does it contain?

Yes. That was the first thing I checked when this started to happen and I've now rechecked with the same results. It's the html security warning page, see step 2 below, before you get to the pdf file.

Unfortunately it's on a highly secure site. The url wouldn't do you any good: https://kontakt.minavardkontakter.se/mvk/drugLogistics/getPrescriptionsPdf.pdf
The pdf file is showing a medicine prescription list and you'll need a special security application called 'BankID' https://www.bankid.com/ with a special security identification file you get from a bank.

Describing the path to the pdf file may help you:
1.
First it's this page: https://kontakt.minavardkontakter.se/mvk/drugLogistics/prescriptions.xhtml
You click on a button translated as 'Get pdf document'. A normal link tag, 'a', href="getPrescriptionsPdf.pdf".

2.
Then you get to this page warning you about downloading the pdf file on a public computer: https://kontakt.minavardkontakter.se/mvk/drugLogistics/drugLogisticsPDF.xhtml?pdf=prescription
You click another button translated again as 'Get pdf document'. This time it's a form tag, 'form'. I've attached the complete form element (formatted with redacted IDs).

3.
Now finally you get to the pdf file: https://kontakt.minavardkontakter.se/mvk/drugLogistics/getPrescriptionsPdf.pdf

labobolink@, Sorry for the late response! Many of the PDF issues have been resolved in M54 chrome stable. Please feel free to file a new bug, just in case if you are still seeing this issue on Latest Chrome builds.

Thank you!
