How to Open .pdf on a new Tab

There several ways to download or view the PDF.

You can set the content-type as application/pdf in the response header just like Content-Type: application/pdf

And in order to open it to new tab in javascript, please add this code.

window.open("Here Download PDF url", '_blank');

You need to set the content-type as application/octet-stream in the response header just like application/octet-stream.

And add download HTML5 attribute to a tag or just target="_blank".

<a href="PDF URL" download="pdf">Download</a>
<a href="PDF URL" target="_blank">Download</a>

So you can use PDF.js or 3rd library to view the PDF in iFrame or inline page.

Solved! That works for me

 window.open('/Export/PrintPdf');
