I am uploading PDF's to AmazonS3 manually, using Panic Transmis and via a PHP script/API.
For some reason, some display in your browser, and some force download.
I have checked permission and can not seem to see any issues, Can anyone help explain how to make PDF's always display in browser ( unless the user specifies otherwise ).
I don't think it is as browser issue.
You need to change the Content-Type and Content-Disposition.
Content-Type: application/pdf;
Content-Disposition: inline;
Using the AWS S3 console, find the file and using the context menu (right click) select Properties then it's under Metadata.
Or change this programmatically:

In companion with well's answer, here an example:
public function save($bucket, $name, $content, $options = [])
{
$this->s3->putObject([
'Bucket' => $bucket,
'Key' => $name,
'Body' => $content,
] + $options);
}
$this->bucket->save('my-bucket', 'SofiaLoren.pdf', $content, [
'ContentType' => 'application/pdf',
'ContentDisposition' => 'inline',
]);
