according to this page
https://support.apple.com/guide/safari/see-a-pdf-ibrw1090/mac
"Safari has a built-in PDF reader that automatically displays PDF documents right in the browser window."
yet when I drag a PDF from my desktop into a blank Safari tab, it is not displayed and instead the window says "Safari can't open the page"
MacBook Pro (2020 and later)
I don't see why it should make a difference. Either "Safari has a built-in PDF reader that automatically displays PDF documents right in the browser window" or it doesn't.
Chrome opens PDFs in the browser window and gives you an option to download it. Safari just downloads a PDF without opening in the window first. Is there some way to change that?
That references a pdf that you browse online. Pdfs on your Mac are opened with Preview.
never mind: you can't drag the pdf into an empty tab, but you can open it by using "open file" from the menus. duh. :-)
