These are end user forums. You would be better off asking in a development forum such as stackoverflow. If the software you are writing allows setting content-disposition then that may be your best solution. See https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Content-Disposition

Do you want to download the PDF file or display it in a Firefox tab?

The screenshot show SUMO support threads about not being able to view the PDF file is Firefox.

 Thanks for the response, 
 My code already has the setting for content-disposition, yeah I would  go with development forums for more clarity.

Thank you.
