I need to dowload a PDF but Firefox only opens it (which fails due to bad backend flags)

I want to view/open a PDF for a site, but it presents the file as PDRcontroller or something like that - so Android fails with some error. Firefox doesn't seem to have any option to download the file (as it's linked via a JS link) - but even when it isn't (other sites), there's no option to force download in the overflow menu.

Hi

What is the site and the file that you are trying to download?

This will help me try to replicate the issue and hopefully find a solution for you.
