safari not downloading pdf's

I have a work around! Yep. I am having the same problem but only on some sites, like: Citi bank and random other sites. I found that after the PFD is loaded (visible ) in Safari do this: From the menu: File > Export as PDF. Boom it Downloads to my Download folder.

I am not sure what the problem is since I disabled all the blocking tools in Safari and that helped on a few of the other sites I was having issues with. Well I hope this helps. I am going to post this message on some other threads I saw with the same issue.

Are you running any anti - virus programs? Using a VPN?

Try setting up another admin user account in System Preferences/Users & Groups to see if the same problem continues. Please post back on whether or not this worked. Also try the Safe Mode. Please post back on whether or not this worked.
