 * Hi there, I bought your plugin a while ago. So far it does what it should. Thank
   You! 
   I wondered if there is an option which I habe overseen to create a Link(
   Downloadlink) which forces to open a PDF in the browser. So basically like it
   happens with shared PDF’s from a google drive.

 * Thank you for your request, you can find this option in the current version v1.12.1
   in the settings under the Advanced tab.
 * The option is called “Display PDFs in browser”, you need to activate it.
