I use v30.
When I click on a pdf-link, it gets downloaded.
How do I change that to Opening the pdf?It is probably something simple, but please tell me what.
I searched the very minimal Preferences, even with Enable Developer tools On and the More Tools menu.
Couldn't find it.The Chrome reader was active, but only when I clicked the downloaded pdf.
I turned that Plugin off, so now when I click, my pdf reader starts.
But a pdf is still downloaded. -

- To open a document/file in your system, it needs to get downloaded anyway.
- To open it in the browser, I guess there are extensions, plugins, and online services.
Still, if you, for example, want to always open any PDF upon downloading, in Chrome there is an option - no idea if nuOpera's similar in that (probably), but in any case, you could create a "Current (bla-bla)" folder, say, on your desktop (to easier pick it when downloading) and use it for such "one time" files.

I understand it needs to be downloaded anyway, but I am pretty sure that the normal behavior is that it opens directly as well.
That is what I am used to in FireFox and I think in the old Opera.Am I right?
Now for every pdf I have to go to the Download section and start it there myself every time.
In the old Opera there was a section where I could tell what a certain extension should do.
MIME or something? -

There's no such thing in nuOpera yet. You might like to visit here to support the call to reestablish such a thing.
