pdf download does not trigger Firefox Save as Zotero

ftr
Hi,

Until recently when I downloaded a pdf file I got a menu entry in Firefox to save the pdf right as a zotero entry.
This has disappeared and I can't see how to get this functionality again.

Thanks for any hints,
ftr

    Do you get a Firefox save dialog (you have chosen to open...) when you save PDFs in Firefox?

    i noticed this was gone yesterday from PDFs that I opened form Zotero but which opened in Acrobat. very disappointing. It was an exceptionally handy trick

    It's still there. The option is part of Firefox's standard save PDF dialog. You changed something in how Firefox handles PDFs, this hasn't changed in Zotero for at least a year.

    (though I also don't understand your description. What do you mean by PDFs "opened from Zotero" and why would you want that feature for PDFs already in Zotero?)

    oops! i meant 'opened from Firefox'.

    Also, hmm. i upgraded to Acrobat 11 a few months ago, I must not have tried to use this feature since then. I'll have to poke around.
