You need to change the default actions in your browser options.
For Firefox, click the hamburger menu, select options, scroll down to Applications, and click on mp3. I have mine set to "Always ask" - yours is probably set to Save as...
I'm not sure where the equivalent setting is in Chrome; I rarely use it and then only for checking sites.
However, With @AndyB's addon, the PDF now opens in a new tab. In Settings >> Advanced >> Downloads, I have "Ask where to save each file before downloading" set to ON. You might try that.

I believe the Q&A says that PDF files only open in Firefox and Safari, but NOT in Chrome, with this add-on.

@AndyB Does this addon make all PDF files open in the browser, or could it be overridden in some way in a template edit to allow an extra button to be manually placed to download if required? Basically, does your addon overwrite the function altogether, or can it be excluded when required.
I know there is a download link in the open PDF, but just curious if i could make this work with manual edits.

As I wrote - settings double checked. In Chrome settings its marked "PDF open in new Chrome window" so it works on other sites like it should but not with or without the addon under xenforo.
At this point the Q&A doesnt help to fix it. ;-)
After clicking on the attached pdf, it opens the "save as/under" dialog window...

Couple of questions for @AndyB or users who have installed this.
1. Does this work ok with xfrm? Assume yes if similar approach to xf1 add on.
2. With IOS and MACOS Safari (and other browsers) when a user tries to subsequently download a pdf which has been shown in browser what is the filename ? Original filename or simply 'download.pdf' or 'filename.pdf'?
