In PDF.js viewer you can execute "javascript:PDFViewerApplication.download()" in the address bar (in very old versions "javascript:PDFView.download()") – async5 Feb 01 '17 at 13:45

Pdf.js documents can be downloaded by executing the following javascript from the browser search bar:
javascript:PDFViewerApplication.download()
Note that in order to execute javascript in the search, this feature must first be enabled:
- In Safari, select "Allow Safari from Smart Search Field" in the Develop menu.
- Chrome and FireFox users can follow these instructions to enable the feature.
