Hi, Depending on your settings within Safari, pdf's are either opened within the Safari browser or they need to be downloaded first then opened with your preferred pdf reader. I expect that when you downloaded the pdf, then subsequently opened it, the file was opened with the Preview app, not Adobe. Can't recall where this setting is to tell Safari to open within the browser as opposed to not.
