Some PDF links will not open
Some PDF links on the internet return an error:
"The file could not be downloaded please save the file to your local storage and then try to open it"
This happens on the mobile version of Firefox which always opens Adobe acrobat by default with no option just to download the pdf file. This isn't an issue with Firefox because if Adobe is uninstalled the PDF is downloaded with no issues what so ever.
This bug occurs on my universities website when trying to download PDFs for lectures and the such so it's behind a login wall. As well as when trying to download a PDF from https://iopscience.iop.org/ which is also behind a login wall.
Firefox Android version: 65.0
Adobe Acrobat Android version: 19.0.0.8512

Has there been any progress on this? I'm still having the exact issue and both Adobe and my device are up to date with software.
