If you right-click on a link in most browsers, you should get a "download" option in the context menu. That's handled by the browser, not mupdf. Now for a couple of mupdf "secrets"... 1) mupdf does download the file from the web to /tmp. You can find it there with any "file explorer" app, and copy to where you want it. 2) to select+copy an area of text, hold down the right mouse button whilst dragging the mouse pointer. The selected area is automatically copied to your clipboard. -- Walter Dnes I don't run "desktop environments"; I run useful applications
