IOS – How to download a PDF document that is embedded on a webpage in iOS

iospdfsafari

If I'm viewing a webpage which embeds a PDF document with the <object> tag (example), how can I download this page on the iPhone?

If I view a non-embedded PDF document (example), I can select the Open in... option and download it to an application such as Dropbox. I have not found a way to do this when the PDF is embedded.

If there was a way to figure out the PDF's address, I could copy and paste it into the address bar, but I haven't figured out a way to do this either.

So my questions are:

  1. Is there any way to do this in Safari?
  2. Is there any way to get the URL of the embedded PDF document?
  3. Are there any 3rd party applications for iOS that allow me to download, or get the address of, the embedded document?

Best Answer

Use Google Chrome. Chrome will have the disk save option icon at the bottom. Chrome Web browser also has built-in print to PDF file.
