No Download for PDF Reader

Sirlaughalot

Similar to Safari, I’d like to have the option to save PDFs that I’m viewing thorough Orion. This happens two ways in Safari when the Share button is pressed.

In the list of apps to open the file with (like Messages, Mail…etc) I’d like to see other PDF readers as an option, like the native Books app.
In the list of actions to take I’d like to see a “Save to Files” option.

This is the current list of options I see:

This is the list of options when the same PDF is viewed with Safari:

I've merged 3 conversations about the same issue as I finally found a fix for it today!

I do a lot of downloading, so a thing that sends me back to Safari is a link that uploads a PDF (this should work without an account:
https://ianstrange.itch.io/highland-vice), I get no share option that will save the file: Print repaginates, Capture Page goes into Photos, and Download File downloads the underlying web page (good capture tho)

Id ask for a Save To Share option (and Mark Up would be nice)- it’d go far in getting me to drop Safari once and for all

Keep up the good work

An additional option in the Share option that allows a Save As option when the current tab page content is PDF/document/image/(audio?/video?) object.

I am able to reproduce this issue. On Orion, there is no Save to Files option that is present on Safari.

This feature is planned. I submitted something similar last year.

This is broken again in the most recent version(s).

Orion version 1.4.7 (pretty sure it was broken on at least one version prior but it worked fine in December)
iPadOS 26.2.1
iPad Pro 13-inch (M4)

Hi thorin, thanks for following up.

Could you give me more info, what are you trying to do and what isn't working?
I tried using the link from above: https://ianstrange.itch.io/highland-vice
and I could use the Share option "Save to Files".

What interaction you tried that didn't work?

Thank you for your help in making Orion a better browser!
