I want PDFs opened in Firefox-for-iOS to open in another Application, not open in a Firefox tab.
I want PDFs opened in Firefox-for-iOS to open in another Application (specifically Bluebeam), not open in a Firefox tab.
In Firefox for Windows, if you go to Options, under Files and Applications - Applications, it says "Choose how Firefox handles the files you download from the web or the applications you use while browsing." Then, there is a column "Content Type" and a column "Action." For Content Type: Portable Document Format (PDF), the available Actions are: Save File, Preview in Firefox, Use Bluebeam Revu, or Use Other. On my computer I have chosen Content Type: PDF, Action: Use Bluebeam.
I want to accomplish the same thing on my iPad, because by default, the PDFs are opening in a new Firefox tab, and not conducive to viewing (they are zoomed too far in and I don't see a way to zoom out).

I’m not sure you can do this, the only option I know is to press and hold on the PDF link. This will reveal options, select the ”share link” and this will give you a few more options.
On the bottom half, select ”more”. This will take you to ”activities” section, hopefully the ”save/import to Bluebeam” option should be there and switch this option on.
When it's switched on, repeat the process and access the ”share link” again and the you should see the import to Bluebeam option.
I pressed and held on the PDF link, and tapped "share link." Then from there, I tapped "more..." The only option for "more..." Activities was to do something with Dropbox. There was no option to save/import to Bluebeam, nor to "switch on" the ability to save/import to Bluebeam. I also noticed that when I first pressed and held the PDF link, there was a "download link" option. I tried that, and it looked like it was downloaded, and Firefox gave a list of my downloads, and I tapped on this particular PDF drawing, and again, it tried to open in a Firefox tab, which I do not want, and the Firefox tab was blank anyway, so it seems like it did not download properly. I also went to the home screen and opened Files - Downloads, and located the PDF I had downloaded from Firefox. But when I tapped it, it did not launch Bluebeam, it just launched a blank grayish screen, seemingly still in the "Files" app viewer.
